Deer Quotations | Page 2

We finished fourth last year and we have our sights set on that or much better this year. Maybe even a state championship. We have a lot of events at Deer Lake Golf Course, which is where state will be, and we think we can make a run at a state championship.

We want to encourage youth to deer hunt, and giving them a price break might help some become more involved. It would be for kids 16 and under.

To hunt it's God's privilege. Every time I hunt deer or bear, I thank God for bringing me that animal.

This year's deer harvest demonstrates the overall success of deer herd reduction efforts implemented in counties exceeding their population objectives. We have made significant progress toward balancing the state's deer population with available habitat.

We've really been watching this deer for some time. And our feelings are she deserves to live her life peacefully, like anyone else, and she couldn't have done anything to anyone to deserve being shot.

We were like a deer in the headlights last year. I didn't want our guys coming out and hyping this game. It was a game we had to win, but the big game is the district final.

We had the old deer in headlights look in the first half. Traverse City really poured it on early. We've never seen a team come out that intense.

We feel we have an adequate deer population to support the panthers that are there now. But we are trying to determine if we're at the carrying capacity in Big Cypress.

You'd think that the person who left the deer and basically wasted it could be cited with wasting wild game,

This number is consistent with our preseason estimate of the total deer population being down approximately seven percent.

We are going to find out who is a good manager. Everyone is a good deer manager in wet years.

Coyotes will eat whatever is easiest. It's unusual that a live deer is the easiest that they can get.

Even if it takes 20 years to build out, the effect will still be the same, ... The overall mule deer population will likely drop to some degree.

Fishing too long a fly rod on a small trout stream is like driving a greyhound bus down a deer trail.

The unique thing about tetracycline marking is that it does last through the bear's lifetime, so the bear's permanently marked. It's not like a deer tag or something else that falls out.

I've been there before. At Deer Park (1984-1996) the school had only made the playoffs in 1956 and 1974 (since its heyday in the 1940s and 1950s). We made the playoffs nine of the 12 years I was there. Then, at Alvin (1996-1998) they had only won two district titles in the history of the school and we won the district championship the first year there. (made playoffs for first time in 32 years).

It would probably increase the number of deer killed, but I'm not sure I'm for or against it.

I've never seen anything like this before. It's very sad. I don't know how a deer got this deep into downtown but obviously it must have seen it's reflection in the window it's very sad.

These were not hunting tools or weapons for use against large mammals. Think of walking up to a mammoth or even a large deer and hitting it over the head with a small stone. These were not tools which one could approach a large mammal close enough to be successful in hunting and killing it.

The striking thing about this is that hair-loss syndrome is just not consistent from one valley to the next. There are places where it is much more severe and other locations where it really doesn't seem to be much of a problem. Regionally there seems to be more affected animals in Linn, Benton and Lincoln counties with low fawn-to-adult deer ratios in the spring.

Say someone from your area is going to Iowa to hunt big deer. You can get a topographical map of that area and figure out several places to kill a big deer in Iowa before you ever leave Texas.

People think of deer as Bambi, cute and cuddly, but they can be extremely dangerous in certain circumstances.

Our eyes were like a deer in headlights. It took us a while to know we could play with them.

People coming from sea level love it up here. It seems like a mile high is where the break off is for the effects of altitude. That's where the deer turn into elk. We have nothing but elk up here.

After the Deer Park win, which was a big win, all three of us coaches agreed that we gotta get their feet back on the ground. As big a win as that was for the team and the school, we had to come back down to earth and we had to play.

A deer hunter flipped the switch for me. He dropped two books on my desk 'Diet for a New America' by John Robbins and 'A Challenging Second Opinion' by John McDougal, and asked me if they were valid.

A forest - the word dates back to the Norman occupancy, when it meant an area set aside for England's violent new masters to hunt boar and deer - is necessarily larger than a wood. It belonged to the king and was a fit place for his recreation.

Adult does and their female fawns establish home ranges in the same location where they were born and stay there for their entire life. Once young bucks have dispersed, they too establish small home ranges and rarely leave them, even during the rut. Deer are not moving long distances, except for young bucks.

Deer season is coming around this fall and people will be able to go out and hunt.

That shows that our deer herds continue to do well.

This is an incredible tragedy. One in which a great family tradition like a deer hunt has turned into such a great loss for the families involved. The whole state of Wisconsin feels the deepest sympathy and pain.

Thirty states are already allowing some form of baiting, including Arkansas. I'm not ready to say that I'm a huge proponent of it, and I'm not sure anyone on the Commission is ready to bring the matter up for a vote. But some people have made some interesting arguments in favor of hunting deer over bait.

This has been a real concern to us and the sportsmen in the region. But with what we learn from this study, we will be able to target key areas that mule deer use with habitat improvement programs, and hopefully, be able to determine what other factors might be depressing mule deer numbers in this area.

Also, as general license sales are down by 5 percent this year, it is unreasonable to expect the overall deer harvest would have increased.

They played tonight like the team picked to win the league. All of our guys looked like the deer in the headlights.

They do have a deer out here but I haven't seen it here. I just hope the deer (will be) alright.

There was no enthusiasm ... We just seemed like a bunch of guys like a deer in the headlights, a lot of guys just wondering who is going to make the plays instead of going out and making the play. That's how it was to me. Whoever is on the field first is going to set the tone, and we can't let the other team go down the field and get a long run and set the tone early in the game.

There is not much to stress deer for a long period of time.

This is a very serious finding ... it is not cause for hysteria. It's not cause for people running to the hills saying our deer population will plummet.

There's a whole variety of small game here and deer and turkey.

There's definitely a need in this area. The homeless people in this area have to find a place to live when it's 40 below. Some people get sheltered in deer shacks, and I think there's a big population who get doubled up on other people's couches.

About one-third of all the deer turned in were from Adams County.

It was clear to everyone that last year we said, 'OK, we're going to do it your way.' But I, for one, said numerous times I'm not confident it will work. We are poised to again climb rapidly in our deer population.

It's a gimmick. It's more fun. Usually, you're just standing there, trying to look compelling in some way and not succeeding. It can look like a mug shot. The author can look, not exactly like a deer in the headlights, but a little bit like another night creature scuttling from burrow to burrow.

It is too early in the study to be making any final decisions about how the results of this study may influence deer hunting seasons and bag limits.

It's high-protein vegetation that animals crave after a long winter. You'll see deer and antelope flock into that new green grass.

It's much more about communication and consent in urban and suburban areas than it is in other, more rural places. You have to rely much more on private landowners to get access to the places where the deer are and to get their permission to do certain things.

It was like a deer in the headlights. This one is different.

It was like a deer in the headlights. There's just some days when you and your partner aren't clicking. For some reason, we had to fight through every element in a negative way.

I'm happy you left. That kind of look in the lights like a deer tells me you weren't capable of doing that job.

I'm happy you left. Because that kind of, you know, look in the lights like a deer tells me that you weren't capable to do the job.

If you had too many elk, deer and mountain goats in a given unit, they eat the vegetation and they would actually destroy their own habitat if we allowed them to grow without check.

In the old days, I'm ashamed to say I recommended not wearing hearing protection while hunting, ... We felt it was more dangerous not to be able to hear a rattlesnake, a warning or another hunter. And we wanted to be able to hear the steps of a deer or the gobble of a distant wild turkey.

In terms of deer numbers, they shouldn't expect to see real drastic changes from what they saw in the previous couple of years.

If there is standing corn or a food plot, that's a good place for deer to come and feed in the afternoon, and that would be a good place to hunt.

Chances are pretty good that a deer traveling alone is a buck, either one that has shed its antlers or a young buck.

By allowing hunters to harvest both bucks and does at the same time, the law provides insurance against harvesting the wrong type of deer. This lowers the marginal cost of taking a shot at a potential deer and therefore increases the probability of accidentally shooting a person.

The key for understanding transmission across the landscape is the bucks. We really need the males, so if people can refrain from shooting them it will help us continue an important study aimed at understanding how deer behavior affects the transmission of this disease.

All good things come to an end. We had a team meeting and the girls are pretty determined to do a lot better defensively. Against Deer Park, we scored 69 points.

A hot deer and the cold pavement -- they freeze instantly to the surface, ... You can't even chisel them off -- I've tried that. There's really nothing you can do.

The Game Commission has underestimated the determination of the Pennsylvania deer hunter. For the majority of us, this is not simply a hobby. It is a major part of our lives. Some of the PGC commissioners comment that only 8 percent of hunters in Pennsylvania make up its population. If they really think that we have no more political influence than that, just wait until governor Rendell runs for re-election later this year.

The first time I drove on Deer Springs (Road) I thought it was pretty scary and it wasn't even rush hour. It's clear big projects like this are able to create big public benefits.

The collars will help us understand deer migration patterns and identify important seasonal ranges. The radio collars will allow us to locate these deer regularly over the next several years. The deer locations will help us better understand the locations of winter range, what habitats they use during the spring when fawning, and where they are spending their summers. We will also be able to track their survival.

If you need more than 10 rounds to hunt, and some argue they hunt with that many rounds, you shouldn't be hunting. If you can't get the deer in 3 shots, you shouldn't be hunting. You are an embarrassment.
