Default Who bow hunts ILLINOIS?

http://www.dnr.state.il.us/Deer_Task_Force.html

Then go here and click on the questionaire and comments section at the very bottom and fill out this survey and tell them you are against the #4 approach of having a gun season the 3rd week in Oct. because it interferes with the start of what we ALL look forward to PRE-RUT, and you can also give them ideas to to implementon Doe population control. If you Bow hunt IL you owe to the rest of us to complete this survey, it'll take a whole 10 min. out of your day. Thank you.

Wow that burns me!!! I am heated right now... If that passes I will absolutely sh!t. I made the suggestion of "for every buck you kill (buck limit is 2) then you MUST harvest a doe to match it.

That's the general response I get from all my friends when I tell them what our DNR wants to do concerning "Population Control"...A gun season the 3rd week in Oct. is not the answer, and will only create a bigger problem. Bow vs. Gun debate.

I completed the survey. I'm unsure on the gun season in October, but if they open it up, you can bet I'll be out there with the shotty. I'm a deer hunter, not exclusively a bow hunter. The state wants more deer dead, they don't have to cater to one form of hunter over the other.
