I did talk to Kevin Savoy on Thursday and told him that me and the surrounding neighbors aren't seeing many does and he said everyone else is saying too many does. So that's that.

The AL DCNR is not a place I’d want to work. Your input is useless as an employer and Chuck and company up high can hide and twist things as they want and work with certain CAB members to boot. Some of the honest CAB members are ignored.

But is always been that way. They eat that big dinner and have the unofficial meeting beforehand anyway.

As long as insurance companies have claims for deer collisions there will be "to many does"

The comments on Farcebook are absurd these days……I don’t know if there’s just that many “influencers” on there trying to sway opinions with their BS or if there’s been that many people influenced to believe it…..probably both…… But there’s definitely an agenda at play……

We should all go before the King's court and plead our cases to continue the "privilege" of hunting the state's deer. We should be proud to pay for the "privilege" and attend for the most important reason of making the King's minions feel important. We should also "comply", as Chuck would say, with every edict of the King.

Well, the head of ALFA is on the Forever Wild Board.

Something the state cant force you to do is shoot does……If “the people” ever got fed up with it and wanted to protest the state’s actions then everyone shutting down doe harvest would be a fitting way of going about it……. Their main power comes through misinformation and convincing hunters to keep pulling the trigger as much as they’ll pull it……..That’s the main strategy of the other interests…..I think that’s the main reason they’re not ever going to actually educate hunters…..Once they lose control of the narrative and hunters realize that they’re just suppressing the populations then those other interests are just fugged……They can raise the doe limit to 5 per day if they want to but they still cant force anyone to shoot them……They’d be like “What are we gonna do now!?!?”…….Answer: I guess we gotta come up with a different solution because we rode that other strategy into the dirt and now we’ve lost the trust of the people…..

But maybe there isnt a better solution and the reality of the world we live in today is that everybody isnt going to get to have good hunting because there’s too much other chit that has to get done to support the “progress”…….Its hard for the realist in me not to recognize that chitty part of it

Got my email synopsis of the meeting this morning. Appears that the "too many does" folks won out. Proposal on the table to go back to 2 does per day statewide except in zone C.

Another way would be a boycott on buying licenses. I predict that one year would get the message across loud and clear, even to the blockheads in Montgomery.

Something needs to change......They've completely hijacked the process and dont have any other goal than to drive populations down as low as they can get them.....I talk to a lot of hunters in my area and there is absolutely zero complaining about too many deer.....actually just the opposite.....I wonder if they will have any data to back up their decision or what they will us to justify the action??

We need to go back to 2 per day in zone C as well. Lots of areas of the state have way too many deer.
