Increasing number of girls flocking to woods to hunt deer===







JENISON, MI — Armed with 20-gauge shotgun and her father, Bryan, by her side, 16-year-old Madison Baar found confidence in her abilities as a new hunter.
Having first fired a gun just two weeks before the Sept. 20-21 Michigan Youth Hunt, Madison found success in the woods that Saturday morning.
“At first the adrenaline was going through me,” Madison said of shooting her eight-point buck. “I was excited and a little nervous.”
Those moments in the woods and fields are being shared by an increasing number of girls, according to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.





In the olden days it was the men getting away from the family to head up to deer camp and the woman stayed at home to take care of the kids,” DNR wildlife research specialist Brent Rudolph said. “Nowadays it’s changed so much and if it’s only the dad and the boys out hunting it lessens that integrated role in today’s family.”
Expect to see more girls in the woods during the opening of bow season on Wednesday.
In a 2006 report covering the demographics, recruitment and retention of Michigan hunters, the DNR stated that although the population of hunters in the state was declining steadily, the rate of female hunters was slowly increasing.
In the span between 2003-05, 8 percent of Michigan deer hunters were female, an increase of 2 percent over the previous 20 years.
That number is growing.
In 2013, nearly 12 percent of hunting license buyers were younger than 17, according to the harvest report survey.
Girls accounted for more than 7,000 of those 80,000 youngsters.

The state of Wisconsin has gone an entire deer hunting season without someone getting killed. That's great. There were over 600,000 hunters.
Allow me to restate that number. Over the last two months, the eighth largest army in the world - more men under arms than Iran; more than France and Germany combined - deployed to the woods of a single American state to help keep the deer menace at bay.
But that pales in comparison to the 750,000 who are in the woods of Pennsylvania this week. Michigan's 700,000 hunters have now returned home. Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia, and it is literally the case that the hunters of those four states alone would comprise the largest army in the world.
His point? America will forever be safe from foreign invasion with that kind of home-grown firepower.
Hunting -- it's not just a way to fill the freezer. It's a matter of national security







Thoughts on Hunters, this is an interesting slant on things.  The world’s largest army; America’s hunters!  I had never thought about this, but a blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful of states and arrived at a striking conclusion:
There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of Wisconsin.  Allow me to restate that number: 600,000.  Over the last several months, Wisconsin’s hunters became the eighth largest army in the world:  more men in arms than in Iran.  More than France and Germany combined.  These men and women deployed to the woods of a single American state, Wisconsin, to hunt with firearms, and no one was killed.
That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the woods of Pennsylvania and Michigan’s 700,000 hunters, all of whom have now returned home safely.  Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia and it literally establishes the fact that the hunters of those four states alone would comprise the largest army in the world.  And then add in the total number of hunters in the other 46 states.  It’s millions more.





And Gun sales are posting record numbers!

I was in the woods when I was knee high to a grasshopper and started hunting as soon as I got my hunter's safety cert at 12.

I have two tags to try to fill this season.  Girls are just as capable as guys.

It should also be noted that if you add resident and non-resident licenses, the total has increased from 18 million in 1965 (first year this data was recorded) to 36 million in 2013.  That is a 100% increase.

So I guess that 100% increase means a "decline" to wvit.

When did you ask about 150 million people if they know anyone that hunts? 


What an IDIOT!!!
