Default RE: PA Hunters FINAL solution!

I'm in Buck Magnets shoes here. I am fortunate enough to hunt on private ground and routinely see 20-30 deer a day most of the time. We have a doe problem and thanks to state corrections ground around us holding a doe season each year, they help tremendously.

But, I am concerned for the rest of the state that don't have my opportunity. There are a lot of deer being killed out there. I mean a lot! I will definitly not sit here and tell others they aren't good hunters and are not hunting hard enough. Some of the best hunters I know hunt public ground quite successfully. I think thinning the doe population was needed in a vast majority of the state, but not everywhere. I think they need to micromanage the state a lot better than they are.

I agree mostly with what Alt is trying to accomplish, but not entirely. I work at Penn State and I think I might take drive over to the deer research area and talk to some of the bioligists there to get a better feel of what their thoughts are on what is happening. Maybe I'll be enlightened.
