[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5787291, member: 1409"] It's also happening in the counties bordering or near the CWD counties. Many deer hunters, outside the CWD counties, have lost interest in being "hunter-managers" as they legitimately fear TWRA soon directing neighboring deer hunters to just slaughter the bucks they pass, so why give a pass to a top-end 2 1/2 or 3 1/2? Seems we're going back in time to hearing the old adage: [I]"If I don't shoot this buck, my neighbor will. TWRA wants you to kill them, so I'm doing my part."[/I] But worse than that, many are just quitting deer hunting entirely. With fewer deer hunters, that then gives TWRA excuse to go back to their 11-buck limit, and further destroy the ideals of conservation and "hunter-managers"? Next, in the coming years, I fear TWRA will be spending more of their time eradicating deer via government sharp-shooters, rather than sportsmen who are hunters & conservationist. CWD has been to TWRA what Covid was to the federal government in 2020. More or less an excuse to dictate edicts, and grow government. [/QUOTE]
