My definition? You missed the point. In Iowa, the "Managemant Plan" is what each individual decides it is...Like I said, Iowa could adopt the same management plan Indiana has, and it would have little effect because the hunters/guy with the weapon would continue to manage themselves. They let little bucks walk. Period. I'm not saying it's right or wrong...but that's what's going on. That's what will ALWAYS happen. They have antlerless season and they have a "Plan" every fall on how many does they will take from their farm,lease etc...
In my opinion, we fix all of our problems by managing ourselves. Not by legislating it.
