Default RE: West Virginia Deer Hunting Hurting!

I have to disagree with you JetBlast. They are letting you kill too many does in West Virginia. I agree, some counties have more does than others within the state but they (DNR) need to get an accurate account of which counties need more does taken and quit guessing and estimating like they have been doing. Another thing about killing all these does is that most hunters in West Virginia are "poaching" deer and not checking deer in, therefore killing all the does on top of that leads to depleting the whole herd. As far as I'm concerned, I think WV needs a antler restriction as well as an accurated account for which counties they need to have doe season ands which counties need to have NO DOE SEASON. Myself, I am a trophy hunter and get no satisfaction out of shooting a doe.
