What is wrong with using the county system? Why didn't that work in the past? If it worked in the past, why can't it work again?
The main problem with the county system is that county lines are not clearly marked in the woods. I've seen it work both ways both for and against hunter and law enforcement officers. Road and rivers are clear boundaries
Big deal. It would be way better than the huge WMUs now.
Seriously, Most people in PA know what county they are in.Even in the woods. Give a half mile margin of error for hunters. Counties was way better than the WMUs you have now. Do you think they put up the big WMUs because of hunters confusion of what county they was in? Not a chance.I don't think that was really a problem.The PGC or WCOs don't have to beD I C Ksabout it,Leave some marging of error there for hunters and there will be no problem. The problemwas theywasn't able to sale as many doe allocation tags. Why? Because they would of wiped out the deer in each county and they would of had to stop their massive deer slaughter or they would of been caught intentionally killing off all the deer in each county. With WMUs, They can try to justify huge doe allocation license by useing a single small area in the huge WMUs for all the deer tags given out. This square mile has deer damage so lets sale 50k in doe license to take care of this one square mile of deer damage area.
