Certainly a unique view that many people, who haven't farmed or been around farms, don't understand.
I know allot of hunters look down on the crop damage control "hunts" that I participate in. But thats a Farmers paycheck and livelihood. It all depends on how you look at it!
Personally I understand the need for damage permits, and harvesting deer throughout the growing seasons etc. It's provided allot of extra meat for myself and a few families I've helped out with it as well.
But I also enjoy and love to hunt in the fall too. I'm not a "trophy" hunter and likely never will be. Just enjoy the chase.
