[QUOTE="Andy S., post: 4899796, member: 131"] What SS said is dead on point. Basically, the resource/conservation agencies/commissions are caving to status quo and the preferences of many hunters ([i]hunt/kill at all costs, regardless of impact on resource[/i]), rather than protect the resource and make the hunters adjust, and maybe make a few sacrifices here and there. Turkey species survival over time is very akin to a savings account gaining interest over time; you cannot take, take, take without regard to what the balance is and what the annual interest earnings are that you can expect with time ([i]poults/hen[/i]). Simpler way to look at it is we need to guarantee adequate seed ([i]reproduction[/i]) and leave some seed ([i]carryover[/i]) for next year and out years. We ALL should want to guarantee their is a huntable turkey population in 50 years, that should be our #1 priority, hands down. [/QUOTE]
