Well, I cannot say that I am addcited to that show because I feel it is a pretty unrealistic representation of deer hunting. I mean David Morris would have to try real hard not to get a huge buck. That ranch is just sick with trophy deer and that guy has way too much money. But, I did see something that I thought was a very interesting idea. It concerned baiting and I think it just might work here in Michigan. Mr. Morris's idea was to use baiting for culling does only. He said that there is a number of states that would like to reduce the number of does.
The Department of Natural Resources banned baiting in Michigan's lower pennisula because they feared the spread of CWD but have banned other areas in the past to prevent the Bovine Tuberculosis as well.
So, baiting is banned how is this going to work? Well. Michigan is now kicking around the idea of selling season premits to bait. It would seem they need the money more so than worrying about the spread of disease. Mr. Morris also suggested that the baiting would only be allowed during a doe only season to make bucks off limits while the bait is on the ground. Michigan currently offers an early and late doe only season.
My questions are, would this type of structure work in your state and/or does your state have anything like this in place currently?
