Y-A-A-A-W-N!
"Not even close. Try again. Pa License sales actually went up a tick in 08 while nationally they continue to drop "
Pa license sales dropped. AGAIN. The onlygeneral license salesthat went up a "tick" was the adult resident. Total general license sales of adult res, adult no res, youth... Total DOWN. 2007 saleswere 924,448. Last year was 905,046....Now which ones higher brainiac??
And from 2001 to 2006 theyve dropped by OVER double the national average, and in case you didnt notice....We've never gotten those numbers back! LMAO!
"USP blackmail is the culprit there. Pa ia second to lowest in license fees for all the surrounding states."
Nope. Thats your distorted version. The hunters of Pa have spoken en-mass and the legislators had no choice but to take notice.
Also Pa's license fees...as we have discussed in detail before..Is right on par with "average" and perhaps a bit higher than nationwide average. The proposed fee increases will put us WAAAAAAY up in those rankings....In such a poor hunting state? Rediculous.
"Too few deer small in spotty areas. Better average quality statewide "
Nope. Severe hr had countered any benefits of ar "quality wise" For every area that picked up because of hunters lessening pressure in some areas due to low numbers, several others have declined due to lack of recruitment. Guess thats what happens when you cut the herd in half then increase the pressure on the 2.5 yr olds.
"Only between your ears! You can't back that up, just like the rest of your lies "
Sure I can. Shouldnt have to, cause noone but an idiot would deny it. 2 words. DEER- WARS.
"You are one of the biggest whiners about another site not allowing certain opinions."
And yet youseem to be the only one currently whining. Im quite content with the way things are going on here myself...
"Now anyone with anopinion different from you is a moron eh? you sound like Alec Baldwin, James Carville, Al Franken or any other typical bitter liberal."
No. I said if anyone disagreed with those rock bottom common sense deductions. If someone thinks those things are "good" which I listed, then imsorry, but that meansthey are a complete moron!
"Greene County is just a rocks throw from two other states. Why not just get outta dodge if you're so unhappy there? We'll get by without ya. I promise! "
Many years I do hunt Ohio or Wv. Not gonna do so at your request or forego Pa completely though. Would miss too much tree-time. Besides,that wouldnt solve anything for my fellow hunters, and I dont wanna be selfish like you now do I??. I Also see no reason not to expect...check that....DEMAND...responsible management R-I-G-H-T HERE....Besides that would be doing just as you do...willingly bending over at the behest of the enviromentalist flakes who are telling us what we must accept![:'(]
BTW, what does that truckload of bucks from the taxidermist have to do with anything?? Bucks from far and wide....Not unlike those that have graced taxidermist shops in Pa for many years in many areas of the state....Not to mention even in some of the worst states in the nation. Taxidermists around here are doing half the business they used to. About half as many "good" bucks in the newspaper as well.
