God I hate party hunting...this fall has been awful neighbor already shot bucks and is going hunting with the muzzleloader for two bucks we let pass all fall since they will be studs next fall and have survived this long. Called the CO and reported him...they want to catch him too since thy think he is baiting. Damn is it hard to compete against people who bait.

The other neighbors thought too many deer so they shot all deer bucks and does that crossed the fence. In the mile around us 21 bucks were shot during rifle season. Some were nice bucks but most were 1.5 to 2.5 yr old all because of party hunting rules...

We had it made years ago, gun hunting...in zone 4. You had to pick a weekend to hunt, first weekend--2 days I think? Second weekend--4 days, or the Muzzy season. Once that changed to 9 days, the number of big bucks dwindled.
Party hunting allows guys to sit in the stand forever, 25 days if they want. (with scopes now)

OTC will fade from glory when the political favors run dry. Your neighborhood has the same mentality as any other. When the hunting quality starts too fade 99% lower their standards and the fall continues.

Most people think up north hunting sucks already, won't even pay attention to OTC.
