Smaller WMU's
Better deer kill reporting system with meaningful enforcement to those who dont comply or those who file false kill reports.
Continue HR where its needed but back off where its not.
Manage game lands for the game animals, not for timber sales.
Keep AR and look at how to enhance it to protect more 1.5 bucks
Make the price of shooting a BB in early archery be the hunters buck tag
some type of earn a buck program if the hunter wishes to hunt bucks before regular seson
keep the more liberal AR for junior hunters and our servicemen
Combine the PGC and PFC? OK, just keep DCNR at arms length.

1. Revise the OWDD so that they reflect the true carrying capacity of all the habitat the deer utilize, not just forested habitat. This would increase the OWDD to 20-25 DPSM in mixed farmland and would lots andthereby eliminate the need for further HR in many areas.
2. Repeal AR until a WMU is within 10% of the OWDD goals. This would allow AR to be evaluated fairly , rather than have it's effects being over shadowed by HR.
3. Instead of denigrating and deceiving hunters like Alt has done , I would give them more credit for the effort they put forth . By trying to convince hunters that the large anterless harvest haven't reduced the herd Alt has undermined the credibility of the PGC and created a new generation of hunters that want to protect the doe.
4. A PR campaign should be started to encourage land owners to open more of their land to hunters. The PGC has failed to emphasize the role property owners must play in solving overpopulation problems in many areas.
5. Repeal AR's and institute an earn a buck plan in SRA counties.

i am not sure how to word it but i think that you should have to bring your buck to a check in station and when you do so you should be allowed to apply for a second buck tag.
i think they should only allow 1 doe tag per hunter
make the early muzzleloader season after or before achery season. you get guys out there shooting at deer and spooking them right before the rut begins.
sunday hunting
illeagle to hunt deer with a rifle under .24 caliber
award something to those who send in their harvest report cards. "something small ie: late season doe tag, $3 that where spent buying the lisences just something little to encourage people to send in those cards " because i know lots of guys who never sent one in their life!! now how are we supposed to know how many deer are being killed if you don't send in your cards?
