Bowtruck, it really doesnt need to go downhill for 10 years to be bad. There are few if any places in the state that have as many deer as could be or should be had, and some areas, many of the worst, are about as bottomed out as they can get deer density wise.

I dont suspect that the very worst areas of this state will get any worse...not sure if its currently possible. But everywhere else has room for further unneccessary degradation to the deer herd, and its happening at a steady pace in many if not most areas according to pgc annual reports.
