[QUOTE="MidTennFisher, post: 5839513, member: 11842"] I'm not on any social media, unless you count TNDeer. And I do use LinkedIn but never for hunting/fishing related stuff. I ditched all those time wasting platforms and am glad I did. With a resource that continues to decrease, the number of people using it should also naturally decrease. I'm not saying I don't welcome new hunters, but I don't want organizations drumming up interest whether that be through outdoor TV, social media, R3, whatever just because it makes money for them. They're targeting people who otherwise would never have gotten into hunting and throwing them into an already overcrowded resource. As for the privatization of access, which also a concern brought up in here, Matt Rinella makes a solid point when he says companies like Mossy Oak essentially take the money we spend on their camo and make it so we have fewer places to use it. He is referencing them buying up land and selling it as a "hunting property" to the wealthy who can afford it. [/QUOTE]
