Wisconsin DNR (Department Of Natural Resources)

1971 I was 12 years old. It was then I started hunting in Wisconsin. No joke it was nothing to see 20 to 30 deer a day. Now days your lucky to see 10 all season. Insurance companies and are to blame. You might ask, What does one have with the other. MONEY. Now I'm not saying that some of these people in the DNR are taking money for the choices that are made. I'll leave that up to you.

There are insurance claims from damaged done to cars. That's a give me. Take into account that everyday that goes by , a new driver hits the road. Also consider that we are build homes and some cities in and around where Deer live. So ya there is going to be damage done not only to cars but also to property.

So with that in mind, the insurance companies are crying because of the claims they are paying out. So in turn they contact the DNR and pay or plead to get the deer herd down. So these brainstormers go to work. Never mind that hunting at least in Wisconsin brings millions of dollars to the state. Good for the economy right. Ya well. whats good isn't always the road they go.

A few years ago they came up with a plan that you had to earn a buck, by harvesting a doe before you were able to harvest a buck. Now it's the 2009 hunting season. Let me tell you the hunters and land owners stuck together and and at least for this year have a regular hunting season. Allowing the hunter to decide what he or she wants to harvest.

But on the horizon is yet another grand idea...HA. The DNR is proposing a 16 day hunt. Wait let me back up alittle first.
As it is right now. There is a youth hunt... This is where you can take your youngster out hunting in Oct. Then we have a T-zone which is also in Oct. Then in Nov. We have the regular 9 day season, Then In Dec. we have a Black powder and another T-zone hunt . Not to mention Archery season.

Now for next year and the 16 day season.... What can I say. Then we won't have any deer. The state will loose millions in revenue, Jobs will be lost. It will have a devastating effect across the board.

Hey DNR, whats next, you going to call in the military.
Get off your dead a## and look around.
That's all I have to say about this.
For Now.

God bless
Have a great day
