RE: Interesting results from an aerial survey at Raystown
well let us see about THAT majority...the number of hunters the PGC polled in regards to satisfaction and antler restrictions was....a grand total of 750 by their own press release! Now that's 750 out of 1 miliion plus back tag buyers, and even then the PGC did not disclose what % of that 750 were in reality connected to the PGC themselves!......hmmmmmmmm makes a true sportsman kinda think there just possibly is a skewed "poll" out there doesn't it???????
Why not have an independant company run a poll as to how many deer hunters are satified with the PGC's approach to deer management that is NOT funded by the PGC themselves? Nope that would make sense and is presicesly why some LEGISLATORS are looking into the inner operations of the PGC as I type this!
Longtime advocates of the PGC need to come to the realization this is not 1955 or 1965 or not even 1975, the enlighten sportsman of the state want answers in 2006. Rather than more excuses an shifting the blame to the sportsman themselves. the only blame sportsman should bear is WHY did we not demand the honest answers from the PGC 20 years ago.
