In theory that sounds reasonable. But theres a big problem with that i cant overlook. Theres folks out here that dont buy deer tags but shoot deer every year on their property, claiming poverty and the need to put food on the table. And yes theyre poor people. The problem with that though, is these poor people who apparently cant afford the deer tag, and therefore also dont worry about seasons, somehow always have a cigarette hanging out of their mouths and a bottle of whiskey close at hand. The amount of money they spend on smokes and booze, they could choke their family on beef. So [bleep] them. If i see them, catch them in the act, bet your ass ill squeal.

So you a meat hunter.... lol

Not sure where you draw that conclusion from based off my post. I load my freezers up with bear meat before deer season starts. No desire to kill a buck unless its a very nice mature animal. Doubt ill shot a deer this year. Could shoot a young buck from my living room window with zero effort every year if i wanted, but im flush with bear meat.
