We had Mike Tonkovich back on the show this week! Mike is the Deer Program Administrator for the state of Ohio and he is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to deer and deer hunting in Ohio. Some of the topics we covered in this one are
If Ohio goes to deer management units (DMU) instead of managing by counties, will tags be good in all management units?
Ohio going to a lottery style tag allocation instead of using bag limits to control the number of deer taken.
Why did Ohio start using the electronic deer check system instead of the physical check stations?
Has there been an increase in poaching or unreported deer harvest since going to the electronic deer check system?
How many people in Ohio actually utilize the statewide bag limit of 6 deer? How many people take 3 or more deer in a season?
If you didn't hear our last episode with Mike you might want to start with that episode because this conversation is a bit of a continuation of that conversation
