DNA is correct at one time you could take four(4) bucks, Hoosier hunters were fat and sassy with that limit of spikes and forks.

In exchange for another week of muzzleloader season the IDNR agreed to cut the buck limit to TWO(2). Later on sportsman demanded the IDNR cut the buck limit to one(1)....... to the dismay of the previous deer biologist(not Chad Stewart) we have seen a MAJOR increase in the age structure of bucks in Indiana harvests figures.

Now when it is evident hunters want further limits, people are screaming to leave it as is........ A great quote........ "If you keep doing the same thing and exspect a different result, YOU are doomed to fail."

We had a slow reduction plan that the populce did not like. They chose a different direction and the "perfect storm" arrived. NOW those same people want to hold IDNR acountable, and at the same time want to use a "conservative" approach to grow the herd again.

I want anyone, anyone and again anyone to show me another resource that we "peak and crash"! Show one instance of a resource where we grow it to where it is unaceptable then crash the resource ONLY to grow it again?

That's what you are asking for !

Give it a couple more years and we can re populate some counties . Of course that could NEVER happen.......... visit history. Indiana's last native deer was killed in 1892. Next hunting season was 1952............. Was there pistols with cenerfire being used in 1892? How about pistol caliber rifles, compound bows, crossbows,add in the range finders scent control Ect..........

Now tell me with todays improvemants we "can't" extripate whitetails from the State.

You are living in a dream world..........IDNR only dreams of revenue as it guarantees their J_O_B!

You wanted the rules we have today, step up and own it, we all get to live with it.
