No..........more...........Multi..........permits. The WORST thing for muley herds!!!!!
Somebody had to say it.👏 A lot of truth behind that comment.
So much truth , I'd say not only worst for mule deer. Worst for every deer herd in the state.
But only one contributing factor out of many.
I would say 4pt minimum may help, raise the APR.
I'd support a 4pt minimum across the board for WT and muley in region one,OTC.
NO , I won't support permits,every other year, two day seasons,all that,when it's gone ,it never comes back.....OTC
Some call it trophy hunting,while others call it management,when it comes to APR.
I Call it conservation. .
I believe in Canada BC , mule deer hunting is 4pt minimum.
Seems like it works for them ,not that far north of here .
There are some rag horn,dinky 4pt muleys if we would let them grow,also a few giants will grow too. 4pt minimum solve a lot of issues, genetics, accidental forky killings,all that.
That's my solution,raise it to 4pt minimum.
Few years of crappy hunting,then boom . Harvests rates will go up after 3 to 4 years.
We all get to screw each other to the top of the mountain,same seasons, same as we always have.....lol
I will answer the question.
Results of the 3pt minimum......
The results are terrible,just us scraping by .
No real gains ,besides keeping mule deer from becoming extinct.
Population of mule deer .....just enough to sell a tag or two ....that's it.
