I have an idea Seth. Tell the DNR to go screw themselves. They don't give two shits what the hunters think. We pay them to do their jobs. They take money from the farm bureau and insurance companies to pad their pockets and break one off in the hunters. They can go count all the poults, dead squirrels, moths, frogs, and cocksuckers they want. I won't do their job for them when they won't listen to the hunters anyway.
I won't change the above paragraph but will edit and add these lines. This is not a personal attack on you Seth. I just have zero desire to give them input on wildlife when they will do nothing but twist the results or simply ignore them. I am tired of reading what they have to say. They act as if we are idiots and have no clue. Makes it very difficult to want to assist them. That said, I know some individuals in the DNR. There are individuals out there doing their jobs who I have a lot of respect for and appreciate their hard work and boots on the ground. When it comes to numbers and helping the higher ups. . . .they are just going to twist the results into a mangled mess of crap. Not interested in helping their cause. Sorry bud.
