NJ deer are small, light, and undermanaged. We need to stand up for ourselves and demand for a higher quaility of game. I'm am working on a movement to request that the NJ F & G Dept. use Mossy Oak Biologic Products to creat food plots in most of the fields that they manage. It's result would be Bigger, Healthier, and Better Managed deer for hunters to enjoy.

The economy would benefit from the increase in hunting- related sales. The game would be more inviting for out of state hunters, which would drive sales even higher.

More hunters, plus better game laws(number wise/more does more mature bucks) Would make NJ rival some central states for top records, in a matter of a few years. Continuing this management over the course of time would lead to fewer accidents with deer, less urban deer disturbance, and a higher quality of game.

I am searching for voices to be heard and organizations to be accounted for. The more voices to be heard, the greater the chance of someone listening.

I am also encourageing everyone to go to http://www.ubnj.org/index.php and get the information that can be found there about a bill to allow hunting on Sundays. Please call and enter your opinion whatever way you choose to go.

Thank You for listening, and good luck NJ.

DuckNdeer-

Just out of curiosity, how do you suppose more deer equates to fewer accidents and less urban deer disturbance. If you want to put something like this before your state F&G department you will need answers.

You might also suggest they create better quality food plots, if they actually have any, but if you start mentioning product names, i.e. Biologic they'll probably show you the door relatively quickly.

Does a small state such as New Jersey want more out of state hunters? It seems to me this is something hunters in most states would prefer not to see increase.

Just some things to consider while your working on your proposal.

This may come as a shock to you , but your state F&G department doesn't exist solely to fulfill your dreams of big bodied , huge racked bucks . Their job is to manage the herd as a whole , and to protect the health of the resource , not produce an endless supply of trophy animals for you to shoot . If that's all you want go to a game preserve and take a number .

BTW , if you want to pressure them about something that really is important then try lobbying that numb nuts ARF commissioner of yours to reinstate the bear hunt before one of them eats you on the way to your stand .

Thanks for your input.

Duckndeer, Biologic..........do you want them to starve to death? Give them something they'll eat more than 1 week per year.

Biologic was only used as an example.
