"spotit1st must work for DWR they are the only ones that see the deer, no one else does. Sorry so does the Bow hunters, they want to be greedy and hunt the whole state for 30 days and the real sportsman only wants a 5 day hunt, if that. I am against the 9 day hunt, I have hunted for over 53 years and this is the worst I have seen our deer herd in, we need to cut a lot more than 13,000 permits, to bring our deer herd back."
Above is a prime example of hyperbole, emotion and wild ass guesses. So if I am Bowhunter not only am I greedy but since I hunt longer that 3 days I'm also not a real sportsman??
If you hunted for 53 years you are telling me that we are in worse shape than the winter crash of the early 90's??
"If you are planning to take a buck in 2011 in Utah leave the herd bucks alone and the up coming herd bucks to and take a willow horn bucks and the 1x2--2x3--3x4--3x5, this is called culling your herd and not hurting the genetics in the deer herd."
Now we also have a degree in Biology to go along with all of the rhetoric and blatant B.S. Mr Perkins espouses.
"If they have a 9 day hunt in Utah in 2011 it could just about wipe out our deer herd."
Holy ##### run for the hills.... Add Mule Deer on to the Endagered Species List, Right next to the wolf and the humpback Chub!!!! Poor Bambi and Bambi's mom are going to be snuffed completely out!!!
B.S. like the above wisdom from Mr Perkins is going to be the reason that 5, 10 or even 15 years we'll be exactly where we are right now.
I know I said I was done CAT but to read IDIOTIC Sshit like was put out here can't go unchallenged.
It's not so much that you don't agree with my philosophy concerning managing mule deer and so be it... But to propogate such a pure strain of B.S. is where you must draw the line
2010 TOTALS
P.E.T.A. = 0 HUNTERS GONE
UTAH WILDLIFE BOARD = 13,000 HUNTERS GONE
