The real question is....How many of that 2000 showed up for the hunt? I would wager it was a small percentage. I would wager too the number one excuse for not going was "It's too hot".

Hogwash, the deer do not vaporize in the heat. They are still out there. They may not move as much, but they are still there and they are still killable.

It drives me nuts how many people draw hunts then do not go. I wish there was a way to ensure more people would show up for the hunts when they draw them.

I have seen it time and again at many different WMAs statewide.
