The PGC has trouble grasping anything unless it is green. Any ordinary person would concede that the PGC has no good numbers when it comes to deer population. How can they?They have an honorary reporting system and they gestimate at the population. I've spoken to a few police officers that have used the infa red system in their helicopters to find lost or hide away hunters/criminals. They tell me this equipment does a pretty good job of seeking body heat and could be used to count deer after the foilage is off. Like after hunting season. Why would the PGC want to use this type of equipment to do a deer count. Well, it seems that they are afraid to get of their a$$ and do the check station thing. I would think that as much static that they have received over the numbers that they would be proving them. Why don't they? It's because they can't.
Clasissvette is right, there are some areas where the deer has been decimated and other areas where they need to kill more. Why would the PGC try some management technique used for a high fence ( controlled area) in an area (Pa) where they do not have total control over the land? Beats me.
Another point.. I've have yet to talk to a Pa hunter that asked for the current mangement style. This is a PGC/ timber idea and they are trying to convinvce themselves the PA hunters want it. BULL
Well here's one that does not.
