Bring in a pack of wolves and see if the homeowners like that better than bow hunters.

Coyotes are better suited for it. But they won’t go after the deer till all the cats and small dogs in the area are consumed first

Yotes also kill young quail and turkeys, and can also take down calves and calving cows.
If they can be bred to only consume democrats, they need to be imported like Liberians.

We were playing golf this summer at one of the courses in Bandera that is surrounded by homes. Counted at least 25 deer as close as 15 feet of the back door on one home. Most didn’t even both to look up or acknowledge the presence of our golf cart, even though it was relatively noisy. Not surprising that homeowner has given up trying to have anything in their back yard except for cactus. Deer are smart enough to have found a safe haven but seems like it would be a perfect place for bow hunters.

I read it, didn’t watch the video.
But I wonder how many more deer will get bagged by moving 350 ft closer to homes? Is this like those signs on the roads that tell the deer where to cross? Do all the deer hide out under that invisible 500 ft mark? If so, now they’ll have to crowd in even further to that 150 mark. At that point. homeowners should be able to walk over and club them. LOL

I heard there's so many deer there it's insane, ones constantly getting hit by cars, roadkill all over the place. They have no natural predators other than man, so they breed like welfare breeding whores. I can understand their concern though, little Johnny playing in the woods wearing a Bullwinkle costume for Halloween.
Waaaa waaaa....

I have to side with the homeowners. You just can’t trust those damn assault bows.

Read the details and think.
The objection is NOT to hunting, it is to the reduction in distance from homes.
I hunt and 150 feet is too damn close, unless you are the home owner.
500 feet is close enough.

Liberals don’t like the deer coming on their property but yet don’t want them thinned out. It must really suck to be a liberal. I’m so thankful that I’m not one.

150 feet doesn’t seem like much. You have to assume the hunters are going to use some common sense and not try to take too long a shot. But in a heavily wooded area, I would think the arrow would not travel very far before hitting a tree or something if the hunter did happen to miss the deer.

They have a choice. Venison in somebody’s freeze, or venison through their windshield.

Nobody says there cant be an accident, added Sean Lehmann of the Kings Park Civic Association. And I wouldnt want to be the one to tell that mother, Hey, your child was hit by a bow and arrow.While it's not completely impossible that someone could be hit by an arrow, it's not too likely that anyone will be hit by the bow, except maybe the hunter. Do libs understand how anything works?
Skinner: Well, I was wrong; the lizards are a godsend.
Lisa: But isn't that a bit short-sighted? What happens when we're overrun by lizards?
Skinner: No problem. We simply release wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards.
Lisa: But aren't the snakes even worse?
Skinner: Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat.
Lisa: But then we're stuck with gorillas!
Skinner: No, that's the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.

I agree. We just had our first hunting season fatality - shooter thought the victim (a grown man) was a squirrel.
Shortly after I got out of the Marines (and VN) in 1969, a friend wanted me to get into hunting.
My response - "Me, in the woods with all you undisciplined civilians with guns? No effin' way."
(And don't flame me - I'm not anti-hunting.)
