Lots of stupid people out there. Gun hunter’s violations are much more visible and in such a small time period that it sticks out more. That doesn’t help the perception. Maybe bow season and late muzzleloader aren’t necessary anymore if the population is so bad.

Thanks to everyone that was able to help with this!!!!

Yep!!! Party hunting was here long before a lot of the stuff we have going on now!!! Be careful who you point that out to tho!! Everybody loves to have a bogeyman!

Awesome!! Thousands and thousands of stories like that here!!!!

Yep!!!! But it’s so much easier for someone to go complain on the internet/facebook!! If you see a crime report it!!! If the warden thinks its worth his time great! If not move on with your life! The constant complaining has never solved a thing!

I was literally written out a ticket once because I was sitting with a guy during gun season and the black lettering and pockets on my blaze orange vest did not qualify as having on a %100 blaze orange article of clothing in the wardens mind. Ripped it up in front of him and reminded him that...

Yep!! So many regulations that are totally unenforceable!! Might be easier if we all just consider ourselves lucky to be in this state vs worse regulation somewhere else!! We’d all go crazy if we all were stuck on the “what ifs”. That crap never ends!!!

That’s unfortunate!! Keep crying! Do it to the DNR! If we’d all continue to report clear violations of our current game laws we won’t be ignored!! It’ll take all of us to make real change!

I hear you and would agree in general!! The scenario you laid out is way more legitimate than guys having their wives get tags etc.. I should say that enforcement of current laws would be best but a minor change of current laws would be ok. My main point is there are several things that could...

%100 agree! Most complaints about party hunting and deer drives in general are about things that are already illegal!!

Yep!!! I’m pretty sure everyone does something in hunting that someone would complain about!

You bet!! All very true!! I totally think party hunting and deer drives in general will eventually die a natural death. At least with the large groups in some areas now. I think they all got bigger problems that are not easily controlled by legislation. I personally see no reason to add a...

I’ve been a proponent of party hunting if you haven’t noticed.. not that I like the idea of one guy slaying 2 or 3 small bucks but mainly because banning party hunting is a quasi ban of deer drives in areas where anterless tags are not plentiful.. On paper eliminating party hunting may not be a...

I started to tackle a similar project last year. Unfortunately didn’t come up with an easy solution other than dragging all the ironwoods to a place I didn’t mind trashing or turning into a tangled mess. Like some smarter people have said on here maybe a year or two after you drop them and are...

I would have considered running until you said it attracts incompetence and mediocrity!! :( My dreams are shot!! However, I do believe if anybody can listen to all aspects of a deer hunting debate they can tackle just about anything in this state! Lots of respect for all the backgrounds and...

Who wants to run??? Not going to lie…. Deer hunting and politics are probably my favorite subjects to debate in life. Even if I am wrong at times!! If I am wrong I totally enjoy hearing other viewpoints and think nothing less of others that disagree with me. We all have different...

Absolutely!!! I refuse to believe people this accomplished are that ignorant/stupid etc.. can come up with as bad of a term as you can think of. In one way shape or form it is most definitely a pay off to somebody!

As far as I know it is family.. And the family member is probably the one that has helped us push stuff to him in the past so hopefully that’ll help again!

The depredation program in general is a very very touchy subject with many farmers.. Some absolutely love it but others unfortunately try to get depredation tags but do not “qualify” in the eyes of the depredation program managers because they restrict hunting access in they eyes of the...

I’ve had some luck with Mr. Sexton in the past. We have gotten through to him before on a few things. He does represent a very ag heavy area and i suspect some of his public stances are attempts at appeasing some large donors to look like he tried. He might need a little education.. No...
