Deer harvest will be down this year. I have heard first hand of people getting refunds on their licenses because they cant bait. I know to some people this sounds crazy, but a lot people were brought up to hunt like this, nobody has showed them how to hunt trail intersections, or in between natural feeding areas where the deer bed down. Is this really their fault? I guess we could debate this for years, but the fact is this ban will NOT help anything. I belive the state is completely at fault this CWD incident. It is a naturally occuring disease, and eventually we will have an outbreak, but when it happens at a farm that is regulated by the state.........
I do hope this is an isolated incident, and that we never have to endure a widespread outbreak of this disease, or any other disease for that matter.If people dont want to hunt because the cant bait, that their choice, it doesnt affect me, and I certainly wont lose any sleep over it. I will be out in the woods every chance I get!
