RKW---- I know that they said that that a presentation would also be made on the deer kill for the 2004 season at these meetings. Just wondered if they did, and has any body seen it posted yet?

RE: N.Y. Dec. Meeting
just got back from the meeting. Yes, they did have deer take numbers and they are down. Here is my take on the meetings (and I bet it will be similar throughout the state):
1) there were some extremes on both ends
2) lots of no ML in bow, but also some good support for early ML week in beginning of Oct. (if there is any early ML); definitely no ML in middle of bow
3) extend late ML (lots of support for that)
4) we are forgetting the small game hunters
5) more coyote opportunities
6) lower hunting age
worst part I see is the bickering and complaining about/between different hunting groups - the "they can do this now", "why do they have to have that", they don't need that", "I...", "I......., "I....", but there was some commonsense, give 'n' take compromise talk, hopefully that will prevail and DEC will adopt something that all can live with

Phade ,at the meeting monday they said take was down 22% overall and buck take down 25% this was all area 9. What they did not realy do, was tell us that the year before was also down a quite a bit also. So these above figures do not tell the whole story. For those of you that do not know about CTF call your region office and they should be able to help you with that, i've to 2, 9r and 9m ours were posted in the buffalo news. Rich
