but as I said earlier, I'll lay odd's, it will be "the weather" and "the season gun started late" for the DNR's excuse ... just wait and see ... it will be in their 2017 summary...
So are you saying "the weather" and "the season gun started late" had no affect on the numbers? [/b]
I believe he is. That over 20,000 deer down from this opener compared to last year means nothing. It’s all the DNRs fault. Some are never satisfied until it all fits their agenda. Seems to me the reduction in the herd they were going for is working and now it’ll be time to keep it stabilized.
