Cost are not everything! Why not hunt with a H&R single shot rifle with a tasco scope? It would be cheaper! CNC keeps trying to drive home the habitat management point. I fully agree with that. But why not trap as well? Here is an example. You dont want 2 pay a pro trap, ok fine i respect that. But for say 300-900 dollars you can pay a professional to teach you how. Then lots of trappers on ALDEER will help you buy the tools you need so you dont waste money on things you dont need! For 1000 dollars you can buy the know how and the traps and be on the way of doing it yourself. This is also a lifetime investment. How is this wrong? How much bulldozer and tractor work can you do on say 1000 acre to improve habitat for 1000 dolars? My point is knowledge and steel dont disapear, they can be used AND past on to others. Another example= you dont have time to trap them your self. Trade a TRUE professional trapper free hunting rights. You will lose 0 dollars that way! Nothing wrong with adusting doe harvest, but you will be happier with the results, if trapping is done! Raise you hand if you want less deer to hunt?
