Pretend it's hunting season and you killed a deer yesterday. You need to get a DCNR "confirmation number"within 24 hours: The DCNR website has been down since yesterday. What would you do? The CAB unanimously approved the establishment of a mandatory game check system for the 2013-2014 deer hunting season. In addition to completing the Alabama Harvest Record upon the harvest of an antlered buck or turkey, hunters will be required to record their harvest into a game check database and obtain a harvest confirmation number for each animal taken. There are three ways to record the harvest and receive the harvest confirmation number: through the Outdoor Alabama website, the Outdoor Alabama App for both Droid and iPhone, or by calling a 1-800 number. All deer, antlered and unantlered, and turkey must be registered within 24 hours of harvest. I just dialed the DCNR 1-800 number and got a recorded message telling me to check their website for more information... but the website is down.

So are they making it mandatory to record your harvest online for next season? Private land to? That's what they say. No such rule has been advertised in the Alabama Administrative Monthly though.

49er, you'll do like a majority of the people will do and not worry about calling it in.

Dammitman, haven't you been around long enough to know not to kick the hive? You're right about that. Guess I wasn't thinking. I just don't think many people will call'em in. I tried to buy a fishing licenses yesterday and the lady on the phone had a problem. She referred me to the costumer service number and they referred me back to that first lady. I told the lady they are gonna have a hard time during deer and turkey season.

Glitches happen with technology. A hunter can only make a good-faith effort.

It's good that we have a few journalist in our state that aren't kissing the boots of DCNR leaders: Good information about DCNR methods *** click here *** Can you believe this crap??? Guy cited the new game check program as one of the reasons to eliminate the fall turkey season.
Guy said that it was not cost-effective for the department to collect information about turkeys harvested during the fall, because only six counties allow fall turkey hunting. He said the game-check program is a state-wide registration system.
For those of you who place your full faith and allegiance in the DCNR to have full control of managing wildlife in our state: Wildlife Biologist Steve Barnett, the District 5 wildlife supervisor for the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and the Wild Turkey Project study leader, said there is no biological reason to close the fall turkey season.
Barnett said the DCNR’s approach to estimating game populations is not scientific. Wildlife officials use game cameras, road counts and hunter surveys to help estimate game populations, paying special attention to the survival of newly spring hatched birds.

So if the DCNR number/site goes down, are you going to leave a deer laying like 49er suggested? If you called from the field or somewhere with your cell phone, there's a time stamp that would/could indicate you did indeed make an effort. If you called from home on a land line, you'd probably be able to contact a GW or district biologist easier, or even from a cell, to find out what to do if the DCNR's check-in site was down. And glitches do happen.

I don't see a need to leave a deer in the woods - a hunter would have 24 hours to call it in. It might dissaude me from strapping it across the hood of my sub-compact car and parading it around town for everybody to see if I wasn't able to get it checked in within the 24 hr window though.
Just wondering if glitches as an excuse will be written in to the new regulation much like distance/obstructions are written in to the area/baiting/supplemental feeding "clarification".

I find myself wondering how it would have been at the DCNR meeting last night listening to Chuck Sikes if 49er would have been there.
I would have paid to be on the front row.
common sense, common sense, supplemental feeding..too much open interpretation.
A lot of talk about how easy it will be to report the kill's.
The biggest complaint i heard from people there was deer and turkey population is down, I'm not sure about that?

The reality is that this is a first step towards a tag system, with a cumbersome non-working system in place anyone can figure out that the majority of deer that make it to a processor or club cutting table and not to a taxidermist won't be called in, period. After a couple of years of having 40,000 deer called in they will "need" to create an enforceable system with tags & check-stations and the whole shebang so that they can satisfy the picky-butts who want to know a precise number of the deer legally killed in their town, county & state.
They will be so tied up regulating the legal hunters that nobody will have time to set up stings or chase down night-hunters, so again it will run rampant and nobody will have a clue as to how many deer are really being killed every year.
