  1. I am with you on this. I have seen the Coues unit we hunt drop in numbers and quality with 4 hunts going from October to December the deer never get a rest.

    I read an article that the game and fish said the kill percentage was right at the same number prior to them changing the hunt dates and number of permits. This BS

    I will tell you I have seen the decline in deer numbers each year. there is a family that each year have around 10 tags in there group and nothing was safe (2 TAGS 4 GUNS IN RANGER) if it had horns watch out it would be hanging in a tree. G/F notified nothing has happened yet. This year they spent more time out and found no deer. This particular area has been thinned pretty deep. Until the game and fish can come to their scenes we as sportsmen must practice are own wildlife management and reframe form taking the amount of game some family harvests or the quality of game harvests. I know I will get some repercussion on my statement so be it Its not what I would like to see for me I have killed my share of big Bucks its what I would like to see for my grand sons. Did not put in for this unit mainly so that I did not cross paths with this group.

    Tried another unit and shot a nice 4x4 at 722 yards we also saw 4 more that were shooter bucks. Sorry for the ramp.
