How about a +1 rule?
...your buck limit would be the number of does you kill +1.
For example:
0 does - 1 buck
1 doe - 2 bucks
2 does - 3 bucks
3 does - 4 bucks
.
.
.
14 does - 15 bucks
Seriously...this would be one of the most biologically sound limits. Maintaining a 50 - 50 ratio in our harvest would ensure a very healthy herd. This surely would do it. As long as our harvest numbers keep the herd under social and biological carrying capacity, we would be good to go. Any up for it?

Since most hunters prefer to kill bucks, we'll give them the perk of killing a buck first. Anyhow, I think a lot of folks will stack up on does first to ensure they'll have multiple bucks later.
