You are also quite naive in your own perception of what goes on in these woods down here.
We're not discussing specific areas here. The qdm restrictions are STATEWIDE. So that is where you are wrong. You don't know how many bucks were killed illegally STATEWIDE, and you don't know how many would not have been killed illegally if I was required to hang a tag on the deer I kill.
That's why I don't advocate that my preferences be made into rules down there. You don't know what goes on up here. You are naive about what happens on my lease, but you still want to be involved in the management decisions there.
Why exactly are you AGAINST tags? Not any special number....but tags themselves?
I am against tags because people who own or lease land should have the freedom to make their own site-specific wildlife management decisions. The role of the DCNR is to protect the species.
