I just read a article or heard about it on the news . They opened up a new season for any four wheelers that are caught off the road .

I'm hoping I can get my limit .

LAST EDITED ON Feb-18-12 AT 07:19PM (MST)[p]why do you guys think running sage brush over even hurts it? that stuff is indestructible! we have cleared thousands of acres of it and it takes a heck of alot to kill it. driving the 4 wheeler over grass once or twice doesnt hurt it. we grade roads in to our pastures to clear sage so we can get around the cattle better(yes yes yes its private) but the places we clear the brush over (even taking a couple inches of top soil, the grass always comes in thicker the next year. repeated running it over obviously kills it but once over it doesnt harm it like you tards think.

Sagebrush is one of the few shrubs with enough protein to carry deer through the winter. It is tall enough that it can poke through the snow.

You seem to be referencing mountain sagebrush, which is tough stuff. But Wyoming sagebrush is not that resilient and is very very very important winter food for deer. Maybe do a little research on deer diet and nutritional requirements, and also read a little about the different sub-species of sagebrush and I am sure you will see the importance for deer.

i know what the difference in sage is . we have several different species of it and its all tough to kill.

This is EXACTLY why i gave up shed hunting, people just don't "care" enough and it's so unfair to the ones of us who did.
I used to be on the shed commitee for the DWR and was on the board when we first adopted the new shed laws that a lot of people STILL don't abide by. I used to enjoy my shed antler mounting business "Skull Krazy"......i've let it all go.
Hell i don't even moderate the shed forum anymore because i got so burned out on all the drama that follows that hobby.
Pretty sad.
