I thunk it's a great idea. I would also like to see the whole west side go to 2 point min. It would definitely make for some great hunting.

I'd like to see a two point min. as well.  You get at least 10 pounds more meat off a fork than a spike.....

I would be up for two point or better if they allowed youth and seniors to take spikes.

I think it should be 4 point or better for general Blacktail and draw only for any buck  8)

After the second year there would be just as many forks as there were spikes the year before, people could suck it up for a year....  If this is an issue of not enough bucks then at least do the fork minimum in either sex units like 410 since there is no more meat on a spike than on a doe, on average.

I would like to see the younger (and older) hunters have the opportunity to be successful and often times that means tagging a spike.
There may be more forks the second year, but not as many as spikes the year before. You can't stockpile game as many will die from various causes.
