Originally posted by Jeff Valovich: open the gun season the Saturday before Thanksgiving, run it for 1 week, then shut it down .... either completely end the late Dec. kill all the Doe's season or drastically cut back the counties in it, drop more counties to 3 AL bonus's or less ... not everyone lives in a idealistic world where they have control over what is killed on certain properties ...
For someone who has done nothing but complain about the late antlerless season, why would settle for anything less other than it being completely shut down for?
And moving all counties to 3 bonus antlerless still does not solve the problem with Does being killed off.
If you can take three extra Does and your neighbors all take three extra Does, guess what you still not going to see deer as they are still going to be nearly wiped out.
If you truly want to make a difference than the state is going to have to limit you to total amount of deer period. Personally I would like to see the state implement a quota like they do with State Park hunts.
One Buck and two Does or three Does and that is it. Also, you are limited to ONE Doe per county till you've hit your limit. Most hunters do not hunt multiple counties so it would work great and you would start to see a huge impact within a few years.
