I'm a fan of EAB if it is necessary to force antler-hunters to better manage the overall herd.

Of course I prefer to see deer when I hunt. No hunter doesn't want to see quarry when they hunt. I haven't seen a single deer so far this season which is both unusual and frustrating for me.

I'm just not ready to assume that I know better than the DNR, with all the tools at their disposal, nor will I get upset because the smaller herd means I have to work harder to harvest a deer. There are so many other factors to consider when managing the deer herd and most of them are more important that my ability to readily and easily get a deer.

And yes, I do like both reading and crossword puzzles.
