Many states are having trouble selling all of their alloted deer tags already. Putting more tags out won't help if that is the case. Hunter numbers are on the decline just about everywhere. There are a lot of reasons for declining numbers of hunters. Urbanization, lack of access to private land, overbearing game departments and their silly rules, many other uses for their liesure time, etc.
In many areas that actually have hunters that would use the tags, the local residents won't put up with it. Typically happens in the more rural suburban areas popluated by city folks that wanted to move out to "the country". They can't stand the thought of hunters killing "their" deer. They have created quite a quandry for themselves; they won't allow hunting, they feed the deer, and finally wind up with a population problem. Now they are hitting deer in their roads at night, the deer are destroying the property around their little country chalets, and they are screaming for something to be done.
