Future of hunting & shooting in Indiana is evolving in the wrong direction? IMHO which makes me sad & mad
Like Mgderf said, you must be young.
For those my age and older, we remember when there were no deer in most Indiana Counties. I still remember being thrilled just to see deer tracks in the mud when I was 13.
And we didn't complain about when you could hunt turkeys because there weren't any of those either. If not for the actions of IDNR, you would have less to complain about.
Although one thing I also remember is that you couldn't walk the field edges very far without busting up a covey of quail back then, but the reason that the quail have gone has more to do with farming methods and housing development than hunting.
