I know the deer in my area are very safe. The first day of bow season there was one mile of trucks waiting to get into the management area. Bow season last 4 week ends. 2 deer killed Next , 2 solid months for deer seasonwith firearms. Over 5000 hunters ,18 deer killed. I was blessed and got one. Each hunter paid a minimal of 40.00 dollars just to hunt there. Hunting is a good clean sport. I wonder what goes through the mind of those hunters while they're sitting so patiently for hours in the peace and quiet. Besides hoping for a deer to walk by maybe their families or even God. With such a noisy boom box world we live in, hunting is a haven of rest for me. I love the Lord and regularly attend church, but I feel closes to Him in the quiet times in my deer standwhere the boom boxes are replaced with the singing of birds.Therefore I hunt ALOT.
God Bless You,
