Governor Rod Blagaeovich, and Mayor Daley of Chicago, they are trying to get rid of the right toown guns, not to mention a $500 FOID card!
But for the hunting part, poachers, and people who don' t care and just cross peoples land without permission!

In Texas, I'd have to say the biggest problem is finding quality hunting property that doesn't cost a fortune to lease.
Second is that although we have lots of public land, it is very heavily pressured.
Third are high fenced game ranches. They're everywhere.

RE: Biggest problem in your state?
Here in Wisconsin I see a few big problems. One is CWD, and the other is the T Zone hunt. The T Zone hunts have really had BIG effects on the pure number of deer, especially when the DNR overestimates the deer herd! CWD is causing havoc down south, and the demise of thousands of deer due to the eradication zone(s).
Two minor problems...poaching up north, still goes on A LOT...the lack of wardens hurts up here. The number of tags Native Americans receive, and the way in which they can hunt...practically anytime, anywhere.

Hey Wolfen, they did shorten the "late doe season" at least that's a small step in the right direction. I agree, too many outfitters leasing everything up. Ks. will be another rich man's state before long.
