    Opinions vary on whether or not seeking stakeholder input is a bad thing or not. I think not seeking stakeholder input would be a bad idea.

    I don't take my cellphone to the stand, never have and never will
    I am glad to only be a bird hunter with bird dogs...being a shooter or dog handler or whatever other niche exists to separate appears to generate far too much about which to worry.

    if the FWC is issuing depredation permits then that is implicit acknowledgment that deer numbers are high enough to sustain culling...

    So what was the reason again they want to cut the bag limit for public land hunters in this new survey?

    I must have missed something. My first assumption was the herd is in dire need of protection from the slaughter they endure on public land. Hence the proposed 1 deer limit and also restricting the youth program. We know those pimple face kids are wrecking the resource and need to be restrained.

    But private land with nuisance deer get to whack em and stack em, makes perfect sense...

    Sorry binelli wasn't aware that reading was a challenge for you. I'll ask if they have it in phonics.

    Depredation Permits need to be carefully monitored, but they are already few and far between in specific localized areas where deer can be destructive to a crop.  Not really a factor...but subject to abuse for sure...

    What about predators un natural predators that are destructive to a herd? Or how about an over abundance of a particular Predator destructive to a herd particular the newest recruitment herd aka fawns? We're so focused on restricting the people that we dont manage the ecosystem anymore. BOHICA

    Can we get annualized depredation permit history by say county?

    No landowner or lessee names, just an unique id number to collate the number of animals authorized to take and number taken by each permittee each year. So we can see the FWC's assessed limit, actual killed and how many permitee's get a permit more than once. I would be very interested to know the actual numbers here,...

    Although supporters/promoters of new tag and report use the "many other states do it - so we need to do it too" and "equitable harvest" sales pitch none of them seem to support knowing scientific data such as how many deer there are to begin with before setting a statewide limit. Here's how similar sales pitches are pitched to brainwash kids in grade school worldwide so they think correctly for the new world order. One can be assured these techniques have been in use since the early 90s after the agenda 21/sustainable development concepts were rolled at the UN's Rio-Summit in Rio de Janiero. Many if not all Federal or State agency staff persons IMO today  had these concepts embedded in them by the K thru 12 thru Phd levels of our education system - to a large extent - so it is no wonder agency don't question but  support almost every proposed restriction that comes along and when they do bawk on one - the real decision/policy makers (e.g. FWC Commissioners) override their recommendations. Yes I know - I'm wearing tin foil again - but scroll thru the cartoons attached anyway just for a laugh and maybe U will quit laughing at some point.  :) Clik this link to get to source where one can scroll other comical cartoon gallery images of deadly serious subject matter all about homogenizing the worlds population including hunters/customers into one train of thought - https://waterpedia.wiki/image/CL4n

    I’ve gotten under your skin,  not intentional.  But while you’ll deny it, I get the same reaction from people who have substance abuse issues and deny there is or can be a problem with substance or substance abuse.  It’s denial and a typical denial type reaction. Enjoy your harvesting. It’s ok. 

    If if I ever find out you bait ducks I’ll send Johnny law on you. Promise.

    I refer to the holier than thou types  as reformed ladies of the night - actually another word beginning with a "W" but wouldn't be politically correct for some here and get censored.

    Those pesky well established and powerful Florida Hunters that opposed the Bear Hunt.Not That Hunt, at that time.
    Good response to Bad Idea at that time pile....
    Hunters are present yet relatively uncommon in Florida :wink

    Maybe reconsider and read all pages - you'll go away much better informed for your effort. Big problem with hunters being convincing them to take the time to be well informed - and I don't mean just from me - there are so many meaningful comments here it's hard to believe.

    Another Rediculous Thread

    At some point, such discourse will simply cease.
    Not even reply from Governor, State and Local Planning interests, FWCC directors or staff will be of consequence.
    Because only a reply from those entities would be of value, and that will likely never happen here on this Forum, leaving some of you to focus on forum member.
    Dead End.

    Draft Rule – Deer Management. Staff will present draft rule amendments to establish statewide annual bag limits for deer, harvest reporting requirements, additional antlerless deer permit program requirements, and additional youth hunting opportunities intended to accomplish approved Deer Management Strategic Plan outcomes, agency R3 objectives, and deer hunter preferences.

    There will never be a really free and enlightened state until the state comes to recognize the individual as a higher and independent power, from which all its own power and authority are derived.
