You make very good points in your thread. I just wanted you to see why so many are disgusted with the PGC.

Deer hunting was so different years ago. It wasn't about point restrictions and herd reduction. It was about all the thing you mentioned in your post.

It was the PGC that turned things around. That is why so many are upset. That is why you see all the bashing. Things have changed so drastically.

I enjoy being out there as much as anyone. But lets face it. You don't need a hunting license to go bird watching. So isn't that what hunting would be if you aren't seeing deer? You'd be bird watching.


So many say it isn't about the kill its about being out there. So.......take up bird watching if it really isn't about the kill. Buy a license and leave your bow or gun at home, if it isn't about the kill.

Even the PGC knows its about the kill. Why did they come up with all the youth seasons? Its to give the youngsters a better chance about bagging some game. They know that if they bag something they just might like hunting and hunt in the future. They want kids to have an edge at getting something.


I don't mean to bark up your tree. I do respect anyone that has the maturity that you have at your young age. I'm just trying to show you why so many are disgusted with the way things are.
