Stealthcat,

I will agree with you there. 7 weeks for gun season?!!! That's terrible! I thought our 2 weeks of gun, 10 days of muzzle was bad, but that's no good. I personally wouldn't complain about the 5 month bow season, but even it seems a little long.

In MI we have 3 months of bow, and the gun seasons mixed in, but most of our deer die the first 2 days of gun season. One year, peronally saw 17 different bucks before gun season-passing the 14 yearlings and not getting a shot at the older 3 others, and even that year I only saw 1 buck after the gun season, for a total of 2 bucks seen after the gun season in 12 years of hunting in lower MI.

I'd be real happy for 1 week of gun, and 1 week of muzzle, around here we have very low hunter numbers after the 2nd or 3rd day anyways.
