2012 Proposed Changes

I don't have a problem with controlling the buck to doe ratio by taking out extra does. It will mean more bucks eventually. Must have oversight by the state biologists to manage the "herd."

DMAP supports this notion but is literally for large land tracts. I don't see how you know the difference in sex in Feb. though. Some people have trouble tagging spikes as does sometimes and there are antlers on top to help identify them as ANTLERED deer. This will be interesting if it passes.

Spoke with Senator Anderson this weekend, he said he has recieved a lot of feedback over the proposal, most feedback was against the bill. He said the proposal stemmed from landowners wanting to control excessive deer herds, and did not want to have to invite other hunters to come and shoot does. He did not say this, but I'm assuming that those landowners are not in favor of DMAP. I know two landowners who are in favor of the DMAP concept, but for whatever reasons do not want to deal with the ODOW.

Thanks for the update, Okie.

Pretty sure he farms in eastern Garfield county. I go to church with him, don't know him, but know who he is and I'll see if I can ask him about it this weekend. We are talking about Patrick Anderson right?

I don't see this proposal going very far. I would think the "landowner" term would be to hard to enforce. Are the GW's going to require a deed to check for legals? So if you're not on the deed, you're not legally the landowner.

the wardens have a little book of maps that show the names of every owner in the county (at least Osage does) I think the public can buy the books too. very useful to have.

Yes, anyone can buy those at each county's courthouse or from here. https://secure.vlsmaps.com/ecom_vls/store.php?crn=199

If one wants a plat map, they are kind of expensive for the entire county. Some county's will zerox a smaller zone for a whole lot less money.

Public Libraries are a good bet to look at Plat Maps as well. Even cheaper there. Just the cost of the copies.
