Dew, you are so precious, and full of yourself. It must be discouraging to not have the influence that you wish you had with those who make the rules. And, for that matter, the ear of the decision makers. What I've learned over the years is that those who can't support their argument tend to resort to flowery comments in an approach to discredit anyone and everyone around them. Plus, you shoot some very nice deer, but that doesn't mean anything when it comes to managing for a broad based, statewide deer herd for a large varying number of people, hunters and others, that have vast differences and attitudes towards deer and deer hunting. The professionals, will use historical data and evidence, but won't dwell on it as if it is life and death, as many wish to seemingly characterize it.
