Charlie, thanks for the comments

I have to admit my wrong on the actual numbers (thanks for the correction), but all of what I heard from this year (from the "experts") said the overall kill was down. I think what I was really thinking of or meant was that the deer population is not getting any smaller and we need to be harvesting more deer.

I still stand by the DMAP comments. Either they don't know, don't care, or are simply jealous. They are needed and probably under-issued.

We ought to post a question on the NE forum and see just how many NYers harvested 7 deer. It would be interesting to se the results (maybe it's more than I think, but still generally uncommon).

Thanks about the football. It was something to watch. My brother was the starting Off/Def end. Amazing season.
