[QUOTE="killingtime 41, post: 5628978, member: 22774"] No worries the 2 buck limit will most likely improve the age class. Maybe not a ton but will improve it. TN went to 2 buck. And we all had a bunch to say about it on here. But last couple years on public I mostly hunt. I have seen more 3 1/2 year olds than I seen 10 years prior to the limit drop. I don’t make charts or figure out statistics. So They’re may be other factors I can’t say. But my observation in the woods has me somewhat convinced. I usually concentrate my efforts on a doe or 2 early season into muzzleloader. Sometimes I just let them walk not feeling like hitting and dragging and cleaning. If the time feels right I shoot. If not I just observe. From muzzleloader till December I am more serious about bucks. I personally am looking for 3 1/2 or older. That is a trophy to me. Big antlers is a bonus but age more important. TN deer registry has never even crossed my mind honestly. I’m in my 40’s now and I’ve become way more selective. More than I ever thought I would be in my 20’s. When I was younger killing the first buck I seen was a given. We were taught doe’s were off limits. Especially if you wanted more deer to be born. I’m sure I’m not alone in my thinking especially those 40 plus. So pay no attention to the statistics you see. They’re are many reasons for numbers to go up and down. WV will be fine give it time and you will see. [/QUOTE]
