stop playing favorites

Well here it is the 15th of October and the peak of the rut is just about over.I figured it would be pretty dismal on my place and it was..Can not expect much after the slaughter of at least 30 does and fawns just west of my place. The only bucks seen were spikes and a few 6 points but they are all last years fawns.
  I looked at the hunting laws(I needed a laugh).I see they finally got rid of that sticker you were supposed to put in your line of sight on a shot gun...
    I see they still have not figured out the difference between a youth season and a BABY season..
Then of course you have the NEW shoot them with any thing you have season---air rifles-sticks-crossbows -can't remember if there were slingshots,BUT no rifles.
      Then if you have $400 bucks for a bow you are the favorite of all.You will get a season 15 times longer than Joe working stiff who can only hunt 10 days or if he can not get the time off only 2 days.
  The MDC like most other states Wildlife departments always try to push this safety bullshit by saying you should wear orange on everything even your hunting blinds..That is pure CRAP..I still hunt in a state that you do not have to wear Orange and their safety record is better then most...
    This is only for Idiots----Smart people already have it figured out.
Just suppose you have a hundred thousand people in a stadium and you tell these people there is a booth outside and the first people out of the stadium will get a $1000 each but there is a 4 hour time limit and the money giveaway stops...What do you think happens----------MAYHEM -even death from stampede
   Now supposed you have the same 100 thousand people in the stadium but they are told the money will be given away over the next 24 hours..There may be a few dummies jamming the doors first off but the rest will be alot more orderly...
     So lets see if the MDC really cares about safety.
Right now this 10 day gun season is mayhem for man and beast -quick shoot whatever moves time is short.
        Or make the season 2 months long with still the same limits.Spread the people around.Less people in the woods,less accidents,more quality hunting,but remove all these special seasons and limits for kids,bowhunters etc.Gun hunters pay the same for their license.
           By the way I am offering $50 bucks to anyone who can show me a live  wild not penned Mule deer
in Ozark county..
