I am in......as long as the clock does the same on bulls.
I think this state should go to 4 points or better on EVERYTHING, Turkeys need to have a 6" beard, and 2" spurs,, ,and you must make 250,000.00 or better to hunt, and have 3 years of law school.. This state sucks..Hunterman(Tony)
Quote from: bigpaw 77 on November 19, 2010, 09:34:12 PMI think it is a good thing. The deer have really taken a hit in the last 3 years. I know at my house we had over 3 feet of snow on the ground two winters ago, the deer had no where to go and nothing to eat. Most of the smaller 3 points killed are younger deer. If it goes to 4 point min, we will be seeing a lot more mature deer in the next couple of years. But it does suck for the guys that rely on getting a deer every year for the winters meat, because the harvest rate will be lower for a few years.Sounds like a habitat issue more than a harvest issue. I am not familiar with the area but if they are going hungry they need more food or fewer deer....

love it!! has nothing to do with seeing anything now, just a couple years and u will see the benefit and lots of branch antlered bucks. I just dont get the guys who bitch about it and are blasting spikes and forks, go get a damn doe tag if thats what your shooting, its quite obvious your not hunting for the challenge of the hunt.
