re: B & C ruined deer and hunting camps

So what you are inferring is that people that want to try to manage for a healthy deer herd and try to kill mature bucks is ruining deer hunting...

There is always going to be contention between guys that hunt 60+ days a year and are very selective of what they shoot and those who hunt two weekends and shoot every deer they see. Neither of those guys are wrong, both are legal but they are after different objectives.

Yes, social media has made it to where every redneck with a keyboard is a deer expert, but to say that management has ruined deer hunting is an ignorant thing to say.

Used to be that friends congratulated a young hunter after hunting 3 years, not shot anything, and finally killed a "rack". Now it's "Your family is fined $500 and if you do it again your out"

This should never be the case anywhere. Kids getting started should always be able to shoot what they want and makes them happy
