RE: True or False...
I think that is a contradictory question. I think it IS the law of nature. How/why else would it be occurring the way it is? No one/nothing is making these does abandon their fawns (at the rate they are)but themselves......via some internal (natural?) mechanism. The fact that many of them aren't being bred is additional proof that she's damned good at taking care of herself (Ma nature). |
RE: True or False...
Nature is a much more cruel executioner than a quick death by arrow or bullet from a hunter. No hunter worthy of the name is going to wish such a death on an animal. Nature's better at this than I am, though. She efficient.....but not "pretty" doing her job. But having it get that far, and reach that levelis something NOT caused by nature. Man's influence and impact created an "artificial" situation that never would have existed under "natural" conditions. We are where we are, now (here)...and I don't see it changing.THE thing that would help....would be to open up the countyland to hunting. Would I be "for" that? Selfishly.....NO. I'm just being honest. So....we'll kill every female we can.....keep in touch with the Bio.....and she'll keep doing what she's doing (nature....albeit "influenced"). Given. |

What the heck? Are you guys worried about this? I mean really? This is childsplay compared to what is being made law right now. Do you think I want my children going to unisex restrooms? Hell no!!! That is just the way our world/government is headed. That is just the beginning.
Bow-only hunting? Pfft LT |
RE: True or False...
Couldn't see the need here in Virginia. You have an entire month to yourself to bowhunt before the muzzleloader season. You can trophy hunt, meat hunt, whatever makes you happy as a bowhunter.Still beyound mehow someone could be so selfish as to want an ENTIRE county for their trophy hunting,at the expense of every muzzleloader hunter andfirearm hunter. Nothing more than elitism. The exact reason many gun hunters can't stand bowhunters.

RE: True or False...
As appealing as bow hunting only would be it doesn't address the problem of access in the suburban area's where the largest concentration of deer density is likely to occur.If something like this were to happen you would also need the political support and the community support to have it work favorably.
Unless you have a county that is extremely suburban I don't think it would be a good idea at all,meaning the consideration should be one of safety not exclusion. I also very much like the diversity of rifle hunting and wouldn't want to give it up. |
RE: True or False...
One of the reasons I really love bowhunting is that there aren't a million other people doing it in my area. If my county went all bowhunting it would create a bunch of idiots buying a bow and not being smart enough to practice with it year round. There would be alot of lost deer due to bad judgment.

ORIGINAL: rybohunter I think a lot of people voting FOR the bow only, would severely change their minds once they saw the deer numbers explode far out of control and then CRASH. |

RE: True or False...
Would you change that question from "bowhunters" to "criminals with bows?" Because they darn sure aren't bowhunters, or hunters of any kind.
