[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5702360, member: 1409"] Keep in mind in years past, no one in West TN could legally use a rifle (as they did this year), in what started as an archery weekend summertime "trophy velvet" hunt. Also, it appears the illegal use of firearms in the rest of the state has only gone up annually during the velvet hunt. Same for using legal archery equipment over an illegal pile of corn. My take is the percentage of illegal harvest is rapidly rising, while the average hunter has less interest in "velvet" summertime deer hunting with each passing year. [I]EVERYTHING[/I] about this contributes to giving hunters a bad name among non-hunters, who ultimately decide the fate of ethical sport deer hunters? [/QUOTE]
