I'll second that, here in PA< even the game dept claims its a wild guess as to how many are really killed every yr
yet they sell doe tags on so called" Science" ??
to keep numbers down in certain places, wonder how they get them magic numbers some yrs!!
they MAKE us check in bears however?, even pull a tooth and take a dna sample now a days
seems they value bears a lot more here in PA , than deer, which, to be honest, its the deer, and deer huntters that pay all the dam bills for them LOL
I wish we had check stations for deer
and I am sure many local business's wish so too, as I am sure it i8sed to generate a lot of extra cash flow for them, as I know every time I checked in a deer in Ohio, I ended up buying a bag or two of ice, then a cold beverage, and a snack or??
Plus I enjoyed seeing all the pic's of the bucks, many places used to take every yr and place on a wall in there stores,
A shame
I personally think, they just don't care as much as they once did, they rely on Computers too much to make life easier, rather than worry about being more accurate
