What I wish is, people were intelligent enough to make their own decisions. I don't care if they say I can kill 10 does a day. I know whether I need to or not, just by the sign that I see, plus camera and hunting observation. I see them telling us what, when, where, and how as more big gubberment. BUT, I also see that it's needed, because people are ignorant enough to think they can kill 40 or 50+ does on a thousand or so acres and continue to see deer and not wipe out a significant amount of the population. I've also been told, first hand, by a biologist who has never laid eyes on the place how many does to kill. When we told him we didn't have them, his response was, "kill them, or we'll find someone who will." So, we shot half the antlerless deer (a few button heads) and had to turn in some "extra" jawbones just to keep the property. In February, we demanded he come take a look at the property. It only took a half day of riding around for him to say, " oh chit! Y'all don't have any deer!" Two years later some guys from the timber company took over the property, along with a few out of state guys who are paying the entire lease (@ $22/acre) and are killing very few does, and some really nice bucks. Convenient huh??
I'm off my high horse now. Carry on.
