Been gone for a few days.TripleBB,I religiously attend those meetings every spring.Our pleas fall on deaf ears.We try every year to load up the place with people,but they have bowling that night,or the wife wants them to do something,etc.It absolutely amazes me how these same guys whine all hunting season long,but won't sacrifice one 3 hr night in the springtime to air their concerns.Of course there are still a few pigs out there.Like you say,though,as those remaining few die of old age and lions,etc.,there will be fewer to replace them,because no one will let them live to the age they need to be.Just like Tory says with elk area 100.In a few short years,you can see the quality declining in a hurry.I challenge anyone to find a 350 bull out there,let alone a 370(like there used to be 3-4 yrs ago).I predict 102 deer will follow suit.At last spring's meeting,the G&F stated that the deer herd is below objective levels.So they raise the tags by 50.Go figure.By the way,G&F will also state their stance on management does not include "Trophy" areas.Ask them.They manage for maximum opportunity.Period.This will never change unless sportsmen unite and demand change.
