We tried many times to get permission to hunt there but were always told there was ABSOLUTELY NO HUNTING on the farm. But all summer they would crack every deer they saw and throw them in holes. Someone tell me the logic in this??!!
The logic is to protect the rights of the property owner. I don't want any goverment telling us who or if we have to allow on the property. I also would bet most farmers shooting deer on permits are also hunting the land - they may tell all who ask no to keep it simple.

If they are shooting ever deer they see with the nuisance permits, they are breaking the law if they take any antlered deer. They also need to report every deer shot.
