[QUOTE="DoubleRidge, post: 5383638, member: 20594"] I know that's what we're being told....but southern Iowa and northern Missouri...in the counties identified in the article....I can promise you those counties produce bucks that meet most people's "trophy goals"....not to mention Kansas, Nebraska and a massive area in Canada....many of these areas have been producing trophy deer for decades....with CWD being detected....in reality...in TN...there are allot of bucks that will meet or satisfy most hunters goals at age 3½ and certainly at age 4½....so I'm not sure CWD is the end of hunting for mature deer with above average antlers.....at least it hasn't been the end in those areas which have had CWD for decade's....but don't get me wrong...I wish there was zero CWD...and obviously it's not a good thing for the herd....i just don't buy the theory that deer hunting or having an opportunity to hunt mature deer is over....and I certainly will not participate in the slaughter of every deer I see in an effort to prevent the spread when were being told there is nothing we can do to stop it.
