Is it just me or does it seem that Utah's winter ranges are void of many big bucks this year? I know there's been a few big boys here and there, but when compared to the last few years it sucks.
The 2004 hunt will go down in history as being a great hunt, but I think the success of '04 will haunt the Utah general hunts for years to come.
The DWR really needs to pull their heads out and start managing the states deer like Colorado. I know that micro-managing units isn't very popular among Utahns, but something needs to change soon.
Perhaps someone from a conservation group could get on this post and pat themselves on their backs for the 2004 hunt, but I think the weather had everything to do with it-not just the snow, but the fact that Utah hasn't had a REAL winter in over 10 years. Just imagine what we'd have left to hunt if we did have a normal winter.
Lets hope it's a warm but wet winter or we're screwed!
