I actually respect those who want to take meat by hunting. Heck, I do it myself, and have almost all my life.
Oddly enough hunters are the deer’s best friend. The Texas Game and Wildlife Commission do great work. They analyze each area of the State to determine how many deer that area can sustain dependent on yearly food supply. They then issue enough deer tags to kill a certain number of deer. Thus they keep the deer at the optimal population level each year.
Hats off to the Texas Game and Wildlife Commission. They do a great job and we hunters are their friend.
