Pa ranks third in the nation for hunter days (IE: one hunter in the field for one day) The way things are now, on all those days except one, every hunter has a better chance for a good hunting experience IMHO
BT do you ever read the drivel you post ....who cares about "incidental money" that has nothing to do with rate hikes or deer management..the fact is: a back tag costs the same for all hunters and all those whom buy one have an equal say in the matters...the fact that you buy an archery tag & mz tag doesn't mean squat...for that matter how do YOU know the "one day stump sitting wonder" hasn't bought the same tags?
Or how do you know it's only a one day wonder whom is sitting on that stump clad in orange? YOU DON"T It seems you like to think of yourself as one of an elitist crowd that spends so much time in the field each fall an unless you personally interview each orange clad "one day stump sitter" you haven't the foffiest idea how many days he's spent there as well or for that matter if he posses a a doctorial degree in animaltology....why don't you come down off your "I'm super hunter egotist trip" and accept the fact that you have one voice that is no louder than the next sportsmen's on deer management issues????????????????????
