I dont think simply "finding deer" is the issue. I "find deer" yet I still do not support the failed deer management plan. Nor do others I know, successful hunters included. Just because we can still find success in spite of the nonsense, doesnt mean we should support the nonsense.
I got to agree with you Cornelius. I can't remember the last time I didn't shoot a deer but that doesn't mean there are lots to be had or that I agree with this current fiasco. Anymore, I feel kind of guilty after I shoot a deer because I don't think our herd should be reduced in the areas that I hunt. I feel like I am part of the problem. Even though I have passed on shooting does in the past, what is the point in hunting if I am not going to attempt to kill a deer. If all I want to do is observe nature, I can do that without buying a license and I can do that all year.
