[QUOTE="CPerkins, post: 5213707, member: 2713"] It worked as intended on my property. The first year we were in the CWD zone, we didn't harvest a single deer. We were not seeing bucks that were big enough to take and didn't feel like messing with the trouble of cleaning a doe or the cost to have it processed because of CWD. Last year, we took advantage of the incentive by taking a good number of does and a couple cull bucks. I was also surprised at the number of positives that we had. Our 200 acres in Fayette county had almost 15% of the harvested deer test positive. I know for a fact that we would not have this information if it had not been for the incentive last season. I do not think that it will make much difference in the spread of CWD, but it does help give the TWRA information to track the areas affected and get a better estimate of how many deer have contracted CWD.
