Now that I know you a) don't get out much b) have your head in the sand c) a & b
I bother responding again

and the myth continues
anyone, has a pic or vid ever been sent to rapp?
no reefer trucks in my area, though I did see three guys claiming to be from lml with four deer hanging. Maybe waiting for the truck )

As someone who has hunted part of those areas for over 20 years off and on I would agree deer numbers have been better in the past.

and worse too.

Is this when the (change) longer seasons started ? If so thanks for adding proof to what I said . I had thought it was about 20 years ago .... call it bs because it was 22

Mule deer wise yes

I realize it is fruitless to argue with someone who has blinders on but WOW ! you take the cake !
I have said all I wish to say on this issue as it is only going sideways now

[horshur]

you guys ever hear how the fishing was in Knouf and Paul lake in the 20's and 30's ever read why? Is it like that now? Why?

[bownut]

Hey guys back on again, sure good to see some open eyes out there. The wheels are rolling straight for a change, and we haven't hit the ditch for a while.

Reading along I noticed some replies are a little defensive but thats ok too, like I said before we need to filter out the emotion and stay focused.
A bit of history on years of hunting and what was available then is good to hear, it will give some new hunters a taste of the potential that ares can achieve.
Without stock piling of coarse, that would be unhealthy for the population.

Our Regulations have been a opportunity based Regs. for quite sometime and the harvest data as flawed as it reflects it. When you give hunters another week or species to hunt
the harvest goes up, you don't need science to figure that out. It's when harvest number drop off with all these increased opportunities, we have problems.
That may be whats happening now?

It will be interesting to see what the 2013 -2016 data shows, can't seem to find it anywhere.

Once everyone realizes that hunting seasons have little impact on mule deer populations, we will all be on the same page. Pushing the giant boulder from the same side will start us in the right direction.
