I would explain that comment before somebody accuses you of being a poacher! You either have a lifetime license somewhere such that you don't have to buy a yearly license or you don't hunt any more!

I also thought deerdust, our Super Moderator, covered things pretty well in post #9 that nobody was running anyone off the site and things seem just fine with the OP! I also don't see where deer contest entrants have anything to do with members posting on the Forums and I sure don't see where this site is dying, as there are plenty of posts every day to keep me busy reading and/or responding. I, myself, am not one that cares to see contests of any sort when it involves killing animals and will not enter any. I guess it's one of those deals where people can go with whatever floats their boat!
