It's a shame when people must point the finger at the DNR for not being able to control their own trigger finger. No deer? Time to take a year off or go someplace where there are too many deer, or hunt some other species, or fish, etc. .
EHD sounds pretty bad. I'm in the middle of CWD country, some of ours have tested positive, and now there is no money for testing. What's a person to do? We hunt and the years when things look slim, we don't pull the trigger as often.
