Every single success of recent times with regard to wild game came about by independant groups not the PGC..time for the PGC to outsource the deer management too!!!!!!!
The NWTF is a huge benefit to hunters of this state but they support much of what the PGC does with regads to the habitat.The PGC doesn't have the money or manpower to do much of what needs to be done so groups like the NWTF HELP FUND PROJECTS.Last year I got to observe the PGC working with NWTF volunteers doing a gobbler mortality study.The PGC implemented the program but it was largely funded by the NWTF.I belong to another organization called Pa wildlife hanitat unlimited.This group is dedicated primarily to two things.Improving the habitat on our public lands and recruiting young hunters.They work hand in hand with local PGC WCO's and landmanagers to set up youth programs and do habitat improvement projects.It's amazing what can get accomplished if you work with someone instaed of against them.Like I STATED EARLIER.You can whine and cry all you want but I'll continue to be positive and make the best of the situation.
