Did anyone attend the Rac in Ceader City last Night? Is it just me, or was that meeting too long, and pretty much un-necessary for the 90% of the guys that were there to fulfill there dedicated hunter requirements? I'm all for the DH projects, whether they help wildlife in a small, or big way. I support the 2 deer in 3 years, and even the fee you have to pay to join the program, but for heavens sake, lets get rid of this Rac meeting requirement, or at least make it shorter and more organized. I have attended a few Rac meetings in the last six years and was not really impressed. Many of the issues discussed were the same ones from the previous year.Even members of the RAC said "we discussed that issue last year, lets make a decision and move ahead". The DWR's answer was always something like, we need more time, discussion, and research. And then there is the public comment. Yes, you can feel out a comment card and let your voice be heard, but the truth be told, most guys wont because unless you belong to a "big organization" your opinion means nothing. And lastly, do they actually adress the deer herd problem's at these Rac's. Again I've only been too a few of the meetings, and have found that they sure like to talk about elk, yet our Utah Elk herd is essentially at objective, while our deer herd is severly below objective. Anyway thats another discussion. Bottom line is, how many Dedicated Hunters think we should do away with the RAC meeting requirement.
