Interesting that now some are referring it to be the "Aggressive"
False!
Did a quick search on this website and found a thread I started prior to the end of the 2013 season. Here is a direct copy/paste...and FYI BREW, you own Post #3 on that thread. I did BOLD the word "aggresive" for clarity here...used three times in one paragraph. Here you go:
"Due to the outcry from the non-agenda driven folks (yeah right)….it was back to the drawing board for the DNR. This time tasked to come up with something different…and by the way…don’t touch gun season. How’s that for a set of handcuffs? Next up….2.0…..an aggresive deer killing proposal if there ever was one. Compared to 1.0….the second proposal increased general firearm/ML opportunity by roughly 40% (I used 28/40 to get there. I can’t recall the final 1.0 number, but 28 is close, the 2.0 number was 43 this year, but varies annually). In addition to that, 2.0 added roughly two full months of crossbow pressure that had never existed. By adding more potential focus on antlered deer (instead of less, 1.0)….it required very aggressive measures to address that antlerless harvest ratio mentioned earlier. It is what it is….and is nothing remotely comparable to 1.0. To be clear, I’m not certain 1.0 would have produced the desired results? Just pointing out it was a much less aggressive approach." [/b]
So are you saying that is my post pav???? Or are saying that's your post?? Which is it ... And what thread???
BTW.... the search here only goes back to January 03, 2013 in the Deer forum [/b]
Hey Brew.
My thread, my post. Just saying you were the second person to respond to that thread. Name of the thread was "2.0 Too Much...Too Fast?", started on January 4th, 2014....a couple days before the 2013 season ended.
Point is, I don't make this stuff up as I go. Proposal 2.0 was/is significantly more aggressive than the first proposal. They ADDED double digit firearms days. They ADDED 3+ months of crossbows. The sad part is...alot of people looked at 2.0 as the better proposal (better for them, not the deer herd). Originally, we were fighting against the threat of political control. Before it was over, we (the vocal majority) gift wrapped and delivered control to the politicians. Can't help but wonder if they are still laughing at us?
There are none so blind as those who will not see.
