Muzzyman88,that's great that you hunt a well managed property,but not all of us are fortunate to have that luxury.Most out there do not have the time ,money,or resources to go out and find such a precious resource so are the saddled with hunting overcrowded shot out state game lands,or worse yet giving up a sport we love because of the frustration level we now encounter.As I said before,whitetail hunting has become a huge moneymakeall across this country and Canada as well,so why would people give average Joe permission to hunt on their property for free when they can direct lease or sublease ie: www.basecampleasing.com and get $10-$30 per acre or more for sitting back and doing nothing but cash the checks.The Allegheny national forest in the north are basically void of deer where thay were once over run with them.The southwest and southeast counties that had few of no deer 20-30 years ago are now over run with them,but the population levels and restrictions all but make it impossible to hunt them.Why do you think local municipailties have resorted to hiring proffesional marksmen to come in and kill as many as possible.The PGC has done almost nothing to solve either of these.It's very apparent that there solution is to reduce the herd which in turn reduces the number of hunters which goes on to reduce the number of headaches they have to deal with.I'm not blaming them for everythingbut the Pgc has to shoulde a lot of the blame for the Disappearance of almost all small game species except for thos wild chicken thet call turkeys,as well as the mismanagement of what was once the the #1 state for whitetails.(Texas being #1 only because of sheer numbers).If thing are so great hunters would not be hanging up their guns or going to neighboring states to hunt like they are now.
