[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 1307594, member: 4319"] NOW we get to the root of it. Thanks for your candor. Though for some reason you still don't have a firm grasp of the numbers in study ([I]Harvest numbers dropped, not hunter numbers....that was the constant, equipment was the variable....you just made my point for me. Thanks for that also.[/I]), it's irrelevant because the bottom line is you smell a conspiracy, don't like what you smell and refuse to believe different because of "your suspicions" A spotlight and a suppressed .223 could control the population. Ain't no need for hunters at all. "They get no benefit" is a subjective opinion anyways (and not entirely true) The MCAAP and the wildlife management program are not the same thing. One is guest of the other. They don't have to, nor have they always wanted to let hunters on base. The Archery Tournament coincidences with producing publicity for the hunt, which is why they got it going. That's their job. They manage for and promote those hunts to the public. It's no secret a "like for stickbows" plays a role. It's not a cover up. But it's simply their preferred management style. You can't please everybody. Starry's record of dropping the buck/doe ratio from 1:5 to 1:2 says it works. As long as they have permission to manage the deer, it's theirs to do as they see fit. I and thousands of others nationwide like the way it is now. If you don't, don't apply. One mans gift horse is another mans Trojan Horse I guess. Have fun in the conspiracy camp, I'll be in the grateful hunters camp. [/QUOTE]
