vermont qdm plans
hey guys, how many of you have heard of the proposed qdm restrictions here? it is rather foolish when one considers that we are already almost at the defintitions of qdm( 47% off all bucks shot are considered qdm bucks, a 1:3 sex ratio, and a habitat near it' s carrying capacity in some parts of the state) the state biologists have said that qdm is not a good thing for us, nor is it to be considered, yet laroche has a personal adjenda pushing for qdm. the spikehorn law would have increased posting in a part of the state that already accounts for 25% of all legal posting in the state, which generally increases under qdm. the antler restrictions he is proposing have been proven since the 1960" s not to work, that is why the states that have had them had dropped them. hunter success rates for bucks will decrease under qdm rules, will do so by qdm guidelines. if you are in an area proposed for qdm, more does will have to be taken. are you comfortable with the amount of deer seen in your area? if so, how many will be taken under qdm in that area, reducing sightings. have more information on this, can' t wait for some feedback from you.
