Dang spell check,Jjas . I never said IDNR massaged numbers, they massage the message. It needs to fit THEIR agenda the same as your message does.

You took "opportunity" for weapons, used new hunters women and kids, for the reason. Extending seasons for opportunity and recruitment all of which never produced a positive result other than longer range killing. Then you ask me for how do we recruit. Why not ask the angry deer hunters.

I will say EVERY deer hunter should demand that license rules should be trashed and rewrote! We need one antlered deer license and one antlerless license period. These are good for all seasons. Justify today's license structure, its all about money. Deer hunting revenue is the engine that drives fish and wildlife today. Follow the money and you find the deer management ....
