There's more big mature bucks in this state than we will ever know about. Much less have a chance to kill.

The 1 buck limit will help with getting more MATURE bucks. But it will not help with killing more of them. Our woods are so dense they will just stay nocturnal.

I hunt Two One Buck States Ky and Ohio They have alot of MATURE Bucks. Seeing a good 120 class buck is easy. Say that for around my house No. The Farm I hunt in Ohio has been trophy managed for years you can see 120 every day but real hard to see one of the big boys.IT would put alot more two and three years in the wood.

Putting more in the woods doesnt mean more will be killed. Our buck limits are o.k. for the most part, IMO anyway!

2 buck limit would be fine with me and a change in the rifle season of some sorts ,but a one buck limit in no way will improve soil quality.

There you go, if we could just lower down the limits enough and tell the farmers what to plant all I would have left to do is sight my gun in and clear a place out on the wall. LMBO

How about, since deer are property of the state and not the land owners force them to have quota hunts! Heck with 1 buck limits, we just have way too many hunters lets go to a lottery system! Tags for about 50% of those who apply!

Some of you say it wouldn't bother the way you hunt one bit if the bag limits were changed. Unnecessarily inching the bag limits down is just the beginning. They want something for nothing and most of us know that isn't possible. Sooner or later they will be wanting YOU to assist them and, it WILL affect the way you hunt.

1 buck is the only fair way to do it. Half of this states hunters are unsuccessful every year. Many others take multiple bucks for themselves. They should be able to take whichever buck they choose, but they should be limited to 1 buck.

No one expects identical buck herds as they have in the midwest, but soil is too often used as an excuse and as long as enough hunters keep "buying" it, it will continue to be fed to the masses.

This is the only state I know that spends so much time, money, and resources on biological data to prove it's purpose to it's hunters. You don't see Kentucky doing that. They dont have to. The hunting experience speaks for itself. Don't want to give up buck tags? Don't want to lose revenue? Fine. Say that, but check the soil b.s. at the door. It's misinformation too often used to convince the public that nothing can be done when in fact it can. Wanting to do it is a whole nother matter.

Thank you Stump. That was one of the greastest compliments TWRA has ever been paid. And to be quite honest, I wouldn't have it any other way. "Education of our hunters" is indeed our number one strategy for our deer program according to our strategic plan. Again, I appreciate the compliment.
