[QUOTE="notgreg, post: 5838231, member: 21062"] This seems exactly right to me. It's an uncomfortable truth, so we don't look right at it enough, but true nonetheless. I'm glad you bring it up BSK, because this is an issue that (I believe) a lot of tn hunters spend time angry about without any real hope of that anger making a difference. It would do us good to direct that energy toward wildlife issues we can have a tangible effect on, and accept the things we cannot change as the prayer would have it. I wonder whether increased hunter attrition is the only real answer to public land overcrowding. I understand the concerns about the future of hunting if fewer people want to do it, but sometimes I think to myself that paying twice as much for a license and having half as many hunters in the woods seems like a pretty good deal. A lot cheaper than a lease. [/QUOTE]
