I'd say when you look at the total big picture, whether the buck limit is 1, 2, 3, or 11 --- it makes little difference.
Poachers don't obey laws. Many if not most deer are poached outside the season, too.
What I can say for sure is that a 3-buck limit will result in the death of more bucks annually than a 1-buck limit, for no other reason than most people do have some respect for the rule of law.
Absolutely agree!
Well said.

Im sure a 1 buck limit in Tn would cause more poaching. It is a completely unnecessary restriction that's only purpose would be to quite a few. Many hunters would see it as just that and ignore bag limits.
I honestly believe that the push to go to a 1 or 2 buck limit has much to do with limiting hunters time in the woods/ pressure on deer and very little to do with the number of bucks killed.
Totally disagree.
And I still support a 2 buck limit.

A 2 buck limit would amount to a drop in a bucket, since very few hunters kill 3 bucks a year anyway.

i totally agree.I don't see why people think a 2 buck limit is going to change it that much.

Yep... Some people can't except the truth... They believe that lowering limits would improve things and everybody would kill BIG BUCKS... Can't wait until they close deer season down for a few years and we all can kill big bucks.

I'm not a prophet, but I predict Tennessee will move up a few more notches this upcoming season, as far as antler scores go. We have been "moving up" for awhile now in the last few years, but I believe the reason is not "limit" related.
Ya'll know what I'm talking about.

Agreed, with mentalities shifting and a lot of the hunters out there beginning to set their standards higher, dropping back to a 2 buck limit makes no difference and shifting to a one buck limit makes no sense IMO.
I do think a shift with restrictions on part of the limit or all of the limit would have an impact, but do not think it is necessary at the state level, not anymore.

I dont think everyone will kill BIG BUCKS,I think everyone will have a better "chance" at killing a big buck.
