Thats doubtful Rsb. Especially since there are so many fewer.
Id imagine the slobs are just poaching them because there are so few and they dont want to compete with all the other hunters in season. Same reason some idiot put poison out down here on gamelands 111 to kill coyotes, afraid theyd get some of the few deer left. It was after Christmas and apparently they didnt expect any hunters with dogs. Thats just what happened. A guys two bird dogs got into it, his dogs were poisoned when they ate the"bait"and it made the paper.
No good excuse for that, or the poaching, butjust a few Pgc inducedmaleffects of the extreme deer program.
"Your right about the poaching problems though, it does seem to be worse this year then I have seen in a while."
Maybe a new Wco is needed that can actually curtail these crimes against our resources instead of having them increasing out of control in the area spoken of? Perhaps what should be "common sense" would be stricter wco performance evaluations?
Any one that is mentally challenged enough to try to poison coyotes in order to save deer should be banned from ever setting foot on any game lands and never receive a hunting license in any state.
And had this happened to my dogs his very well being would be questionable.
And making personal attacks against a fellow hunter whom you don't happen to agree with shows nothing more than an uneducated, inability to debate an issue on its merits.
I have no good words for the P.G.C. or its deer program but personal attacks do no more than devalue your argument.
You should think of yourselves as better than that.
