I feel like I'm drowning in a river of tears here in PA.

I guess the floodwater has changed my opinion. I saw deer before Herd Reduction, I see plenty of deer now. For anyone having problems seeing deer, come on down to good ole' Fayette County, we're overrun with the stinking things.

I guess I'm just tired of hearing this whining, and I agree that some areas are probably overshot.

As for harvest numbers on the slide, take a look at the license sales - they're on the slide, too. Let's face it, PA hunters are getting OLD - going blind, deaf, and have increasingly limited physical capabilities. Of course their success rates are going to decline, it's common sense.

At any rate, I hope we keep and/or increase the Antler Restrictions, but I guess the herd reduction could go or stay, I am indifferent. I was pro-H.R., so all this crying has swayed my opinion (probably just an appeasement offering).
