I would say most of what you say is true Barnes,, But, in reality you have a getter chance to draw a tag than I do.. Naturaly it depends on how many out of state people apply for a drawing here. But, still you can purchase more chances if you wish.. We can only get earned points as a resident.

Our whitetails can be huge that is for sure.. But, the down fall is exactly what you have stated already.. Low deer numbers..

I have to agree again on the black bear hunting as well. This past year they made it legal to take 2 bears. 1 of which must be taken by hunting and another if you wish by the use of a cable trap.. Any one wanting to take the bears you can take all you want IMO.. I do not hunt for bears as I do not like the flavor of them..

We also have had an average of a foot and a half of snow. This followed by 2 days later by Ice Storms that have lasted 4 and1/2 days. I am not sure what kind of impact that is going to be on our deer herd as of yet..

Flags you might want to think it over.. We are a union state and we are mostly democratic.. LOL
