They need more hunting especially of deer. Too many deer are killing off the local vegetation.

Depends where you are located. Pennsylvania deer hunting is nowhere the quality it once was. Tags for this, extra permits for this, and lots of money getting squandered by the Fish & Game Commission.

I regularly visit mid- and upper-New York state, and I know they are NOT like NY City dwellers. Uh uh! The flyover people and land are great.

Would love to have experienced the Borscht Belt in its heyday.

I, for one, did not teach my boys to hunt. I did, on the other hand, teach them orienteering, survival, and small unit tactics.

I’m starting to use the microphone in my Smartphone. If you say 100 into a cellphone’s microphone, your sentence makes sense.

Ever-easy to understand the “mis-translation”. :)

“I did, on the other hand, teach them orienteering, survival, and small unit tactics.”

Very useful stuff.

U.S. population has doubled since I was born. Fortunately, my two rural dwellings (NH and Florida) wouldn’t object to a shot or two.

Here is West by God Virginia, but the hunting took place in NC (eldest son), VA and WV (me), and PA (middle son).

My wife is the eldest of 12, with 2 brothers so that leaves 9 sisters. None of them hunt. Besides she is the looker of the bunch.

The media still talks about gun control in terms of deer hunting. “No one needs an AR-15 to hunt deer”.
