The most concentrated I ever saw whitetail was over alfalfa pastures.

I don't think throwing apples and corn on the ground is going to bring several hundred deer into your stand.

Perhaps we should ban any agricultural product which attracts deer.  :dunno:

Maybe thats why our boy Bill Gates is buying up all the farm land, you know he says we can make our own food through science, we don't need farm land, AG land and livestock.....The pieces of the puzzle just keep falling into place.
Would you rather have the Chinese own it?

Farm land has been purchased by many investment groups. Farm ground is a pretty good investment when other commercial relestate is down.

They're really doubling down on this COVID thing. They could ride this out for at least the rest of the decade doing studies and getting grant money.

FYI. The CWD plan was finalized. https://wdfw.wa.gov/publications/02292

They retained, unedited, the sections calling for banning baiting for deer/elk hunting. 

I'd still really like to have one of these authors explain to me how placing a regulated small quantity of bait is going to increase spread of CWD if/when it gets to WA...unless they are also proposing to ban all ag and livestock production in the state  :bash:

I was barely able to read it I was laughing to hard at the first sentence in the Executive Summary purpose and goals.

They are suggesting shutting down the feeding stations in central washington, that out to go over well.

And the last item in the report is banning the use of commercial deer urine sales in the state.

I guess I better get to planting apple trees and food plots.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Guess this will prove interesting at the elk feeding station.

Proposing hell, its a done deal and we all know it.  Plus those of us who see it each and every winter all winter long AND wdfw know full well everywhere cattlemen roll out bales for their cows, it gets cleaned up by deer around here. Then theres the mineral/supplement tubs they all use generously in the spring that get pounded by deer as well as their cattle.  But we all know, we are the easiest ones to control, cattlemen not so much.  We will get restrictions, no one else.

WDFW knows this, and if they dont, they are far too stupid to be on the payroll.
