I think that the TWRA does a fine job here in TN. I have lived in and experienced the hunting regs in a bunch of states, and I don't have many complaints about TN.

That said, there are a few things that I wish were different. The first thing that comes to mind is that coyote and hog hunting on WMAs are way too restricted and complicated, IMHO. Also, the does seem to seriously outnumber the bucks in unit-A where I hunt, but I cannot take any does during the gun season (without a quota hunt)? I have more, but those are my two biggest grips right now.

I wonder if they take the input seriously.

I like the way you think Batman, on the coyote and feral hog issue.

I've purchased a sportsmen license every year, since they came out with them, and all the TWRA has done is further restrict and complicate the taking of these two species on WMA's...yet, they publicly claim they are having "problems" with the proliferation of these animals.

They will continue with this mindless logic, and then wonder why they are losing more and more licensed hunters every year!

Seems to me, they talk out of both sides of their mouths! FWIW

Seems like this is your chance to tell them that.
