Anyone else get this survey and complete it?
SCN: Does it make sense to post the survey here?

That sounds like one of the questions on the survey.fairchaser":xmzucn4t said:This upcoming season is the most critical in Tennessee deer hunting history, don't you think?

To those who are thinking, ok, but this is only in a handful of counties, not in mine,
think again.
CWD likely will soon be documented in whatever county you're hunting.
It would have been found, possibly years, sooner in those hot zone counties
if TWRA had been intensely testing for it in the past like they did in 2018.
There will be more intense testing statewide in 2019.
These "hot zone" regs could easily go completely "statewide" within a couple years.
All that would take to "justify" this would be finding CWD in some eastern counties and some farther north counties.
That will happen.
Just a matter of how soon.
I firmly believe they knew CWD existed before they pushed through the August Velvet Hunt. You have some real good points LBLman.ronnycl":388m51f6 said:TheLBLman":388m51f6 said:And again . . . . . .

This right here is really scary. I don't doubt that we could kill more bucks in Aug than Nov. So what happens if they confirm CWD in East Tn and northern counties, are they gonna implement the extras two bucks for the entire state. A. 2 and a 1/2 yr old would be a trophy for sure in 2-3 years. I sure hope they weigh all decisions made and do not let the money income blind them. We could really see the "good ole days of deer season" as a thing of the past. Its already changing.TheLBLman":v2orgxbp said:Here's the bottom line:
We're talking about great potential for there to be a higher buck harvest during a single weekend in August
than we've traditionally had on the opening weekend of rifle season in November.
Worse, they're even proposing making it two weekends,
so that could mean more bucks being killed in August than in November.
But how does this deal with CWD?
It really doesn't, does it?
