A bunch of guys named Jack Smith , Tyler Hayes , and Matt Doss each got themselves a deer on Redstone Arsenal . And apparently , having hunters around makes the roads on Redstone Arsenal a bit safer . Last hunting season , 425 registered hunters managed to bag 136 deer , including 75 does and 61 bucks . Frederick Anderson , the hunting coordinator at Outdoor Recreation , said it was just an average year for hunting on Redstone . But hey , average is good because it helps keep everyone safe . Anderson mentioned that there were 39 reported deer strikes that caused damage to vehicles , and probably even more that didn ' t get reported . Without hunting , the deer population would explode and we ' d have more cars crashing into them on Arsenal roads . So , next year there will be some changes in the hunting program , with a new system called iSportsman . Apparently , it ' s what all the other posts are using and it helps manage hunting programs and other outdoor activities . They ' ll provide more info on iSportsman soon . If you ' re eligible to hunt at Redstone , which includes civilians , government workers , military personnel , and disabled veterans , you can get more details by calling Outdoor Recreation during their open hours . Just keep in mind they ' re closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays .
