Game Check may have its flaws but I dont think its 1,000 deer off kinda flawed......Its certainly not showing that in every county so something is happening that caused Jackson Co hunters to shoot far less does....as well as quite a few other counties....I will say that I think one of the reasons GC was put into place is because its very likely that it'll pick up on changes ahead of hunter perception......Again, if you're not gonna take the numbers to mean anything then whats the use in having it? Just like 2dogs said.....you cant base everything off just what you're seeing on your own property
