Nope, absolutely zero hunting in or around the park. 90% of the people that own the adjoining land are anti-hunters so they dont allow anyone to hunt. If and or when they do the smart thing and setup a limited permit program (like other towns around here are beginning to do), Ill be first in line for one of the permits. There are some absolute monster deer in there.
I dont agree with the bait and shoot programs, they have to pay people to do it, whereas if they setup a program to close the park (or parts of it) for a certain amount of time and sell the tags to hunters who pass a simple shooting test (3 arrows out of 4 on a pie plate at 35 or 40 yards). That way they make money instead of spend it, and get the deer population more under control while they make a bunch of hunters happy at the same time! Sounds like a winner to me. Too bad most politicians' heads reside in their nether-regions.
