2pt only season?... for mule deer.

[superdown]

I think it's a bad idea.  A yearling buck with good genetics is usually a two point and a buck with not so good genetics is usually a spike.  I don't see enough mature two points to justify a 2 point Muley tag.  I would like to see 15 and under hunters and 65 and over hunters able to kill any mule deer buck though. 

I really appreciate your input but if you don't see a lot mature 2pts then you are in very good / no tellum ridge area. most of the people i talk to disagree.I own property in 204 and hunt a lot in 101 and also hunt most of the late white tail season in the northeast corner.

I agree the old super 2's need culled but a lot of hunters would settle for young ones

For one or two seasons I still think that is ok in a limited number of GMU's where the super 2's are getting out of control.  Not going to completely wipe out the 2x2 population while you establish breeding of good genetics at the same time.

Youth and 65+ 2pt only seasons after or before reg season.

Maybe archery and muzzle loader 2pt min.

I saw at least 35 bucks this year and the only legal buck I saw I got to shoot. The rest were 2 pts and most of the 2 pt deer I saw were mature bucks ...

How about putting the seasons and points on a buck back to the old days, and get rid of this lawyer along state type of hunting we have now. This state has too many draw hunts, and we don't need more. Also, to do away with the general hunt, and go to an ALL DRAW state makes about as much since as calling an eye guard a point. This state is so screwed up with regulations that you DO need to have a lawyer with you to determine if one can hunt here or shoot that animal from this spot. How about putting the fun back into hunting..

   Only in Washington is a two point deer a three point, but a three point elk can be a spike.  Most annoying thing I've ever seen.

What makes a deer no more than a two point?  Diet,genetics,minerals ? .  I dont think its possible for a deer to be a two point its whole life unless it was  harvested, or killed. The two point only rule is not a good way togo either. Wonder why canadien  mule deer are bigger?  They are managed , here they are not your only fooling yourself if you think the fish @ game department are trying to make positive choices. The doe tag quanties are killing our deer faster than anything multipul years of 2,000 3,000 doe tags or any deer is a perfect result of what you see in the teanaway ,not wolves,cougars , hairloss illness,poaching.  Make it 4 point only for muledeer,whitetail,any deer,blacktail 2 point..

Not sure the two point season would help on these old vets.  This guy has been perfectly legal for years, yet no one touched him.  We'll see if the fire got him I guess.

If 2 points were your only choice he'd be one heck of a nice tag filler!  Of course this state would probably tell you he is not a legal 2 point

I know right....
