after reading what MHALL had to say, i no longer think its alright, i think it *****. never really thought about it as an open door, but i guess its easier to lie to a computer than to look someone in the eye at a check station, and to get that 5 year old to be excited and not tell who really shot that buck. ive never really been a big buck hunter, but when i decide to take my buck, i dont think twice about it and know that my buck hunting is over for the year and if i havent already, i try to harvest my doe, which sometimes, the few times i can go, i have to work just as hard to get that done. opening weekend is now opening weekend for my 13 year old if he doesnt get it done on the youth weekend, which has been the case the last three years. you wouldnt believe the number of shots during youth weekend that are long before legal light and it makes me sick to think that some kid just got introduced to the ways of the poacher. like i said, i think it ***** now. didnt mean to bore you with my little rant. later

. Poaching happens whether which system you use, but also look at it this way, at least the anti hunter group's and non hunting public have to see the dead deer and have something to protest or complain about. I have seen these protests at ck station's, several years ago when Taylorsville allowed open public hunting there was a big protest there, I even had one car pull up beside and cal me a bambi killer and murderer, they saw my little spike in the back of my car, but I politley explained to these people, we were stuck in traffic, that they need to remember that I "shot" this deer, so I do have a gun in my car and also it seems that I know how to use it. They said no more.
