A word of caution about shooting does.. Our State claimed (and still does) that the does were too thick. They gave out a ton of doe tags for years. Some shot what they needed. While other good little Wisconsin hunters slaughtered the herds. Some people shot a lot more then they could ever use, and I am sure a lot of it went to waste if you would have seen the pictures of the local dumps, full of deer carcases.

Now in the area I am, many are not even going to purchase a license this year. Why?? There are no deer around. Between the slaughter of the local herds and the timber wolves, they are about dried up in many areas. In the southern end of the State, we have Chronic Waste Disease so that will take the herd out there.

Gearheart, while I understand your position. In the States opinion, why not hook people for two license fees. Or extend the season for all aspects of hunting and that way, we get more hunters in the woods and more hunters dollars in the States pockets.
