Some people just need to spend more time and effort learning the skills instead of trying to find a shortcut or reg change to make them succesful, simply wont help if you dont make the commitment yourself first!
I don't think anyone thinks or has claimed that lower buck limits will make mature bucks easier to kill. I think TN has better potential than the bucks we're producing. I think several WMA's reflect that. I guess you can call me wrong for wanting my state to be the best it can be! For the record, I think a 2 buck limit will satisfy both groups of hunters just fine.

X2! I just don't understand why that's so hard to get?

I don't go around and clam whats best for unit A cause I don't hunt it...so why are you saying what we want in unit B??? I'm not!! You guys are making it perfectly clear you want to kill every buck you see!
If that's your opinion, so be it.
Now for my opinion, I've passed more bucks in my life than you will etc. You fill in the blank. you seem to have all the answers... This is just my opinion...don't go gunning....

Kansas has a lot of mature bucks I think you will all agree, but by no means are they any easier to kill. The regs allow for more to reach maturity, so there is more opportunities at a mature animal.

I guess I need to whip out Webster's and give the definition of "sarcasm" for you guys to see. Sorry, if you're offended by sarcasm. I will refrain from using it in the future. I guess the smiley should have been a clue, but boy was I wrong! I've already made the statement below regarding the quote you guys got upset about:
Winchester, sorry you didn't see the sarcasm in my above statement.

Yodel Dog,
If I seem to have come on to strong I apologize... The subject was about advocating a 1 or 2 buck limit...Not unit B or A or even L...
I will say this, then I will let it rest: I as a long time hunter of many states (last count 39 of them) will support and accept what the local state wildlife authority have in place for deer to be taken. With that said, here in Tn now my home I will live with 3 bucks allowed till it changes. Now that does not mean I will take 3 bucks every season, but I do have the option to do so. I truly believe that the TWRA has done the very best job that they can do and will continue to do so. I do believe they know whats best for the state...I will continue to support them...

Next they will want us to turn in our rifles and hunt with shotgun/MZ only.... Lets make the seasons shorter so they can live longer... Lets ban crossbows... The buck limits seem to be fine and TWRA is doing a great job...
