[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5268255, member: 1409"] [B][I]THIS![/I][/B] This was a very big issue this year! Personally, I was on a quota hunt with 4 other people in Henry County. ALL 5 of us were planning to hunt [I][B]UNTIL[/B][/I] TWRA placed Henry County under the CWD transportation restrictions right before this hunt. This was a 3-day quota rifle hunt [I]BEFORE[/I] the statewide gun season opened, and again, all were excited to have been drawn, all planned to go. At the last minute, hearing about the CWD transportation issue, all 4 my hunting friends backed out, and it was for that single reason alone. After they backed out, I decided not to go myself, but then changed my mind, ending up going on the last of the 3 days. And how many other hunters did I see on this normally high-value quota gun hunt? Zero. And I believe the main reason so many hunters didn't show was because of the CWD transportations issues. For certain, it was with the 5 in my hunting group. [I]THIS[/I] would have to have had an impact on the statewide deer kill, considering so many hunters have traditionally & habitually travelled to such counties as Henry to go deer hunting, but have now suddenly just stopped deer hunting.
