Default RE: WEST VIRGINIA "Freezer Hunters"

Things have changed from the time of our fore-fathers, computers, scopes on guns, compound bows, electric, tree stands, broadheads and numerous other things such as grocerie stores. I don't really think in this day and age many hunters are out hunting in hope of killing deer to support their families.
I myself just think that it takes more of a hunter to take a buck than to kill a doe. Anyone can sit in their pick up and shoot a doe, it takes a "real" hunter to hunt in inclimate weather (0-30) and put numerous hours in the woods on their stand in pursuit of a "trophy" buck.
To each their own, just don't bitch and moan when all the "freezer hunters" have taken most of does by their greed and you're not seeing the number of der that you were accustomed to in years past.
