Fort Campbell is a bonus buck, totally different scenario. Ft Campbell has lots of onetime visitors. So the whole, being selective, goes out the window. I wouldnt read to much in to any quota hunt, or WMA hunts where the harvest of a buck doesnt go against your state tage. x2
Exactly. Cant compare it to statewide management.

KY one buck limit is working. They are climbing the charts as far as places to go to hunt trophy whitetail. How can you argue with that? It would not work for people that just want to deer hunt.1 Buck and the season is over would not make me happy.Most hunters are happy with what some would consider average deer.Everyone wants a Throphy but most hunters are happy just to get a chance to hunt and bring a deer home.

Is the number of B&C bucks the only way to measure the hunting? I sure hope not, or hunters have truly "lost the way."

Why don't we go to the one buck limit and harvest does until the buck to doe population gets more balanced?

I don't think it's that out of balance, except perhaps in Unit B areas.

If a hunters success can only be measured by the score of the antlers of the buck he takes we are in sorry shape. Most hunters couldn't care less about where the state stands in the record books, they just want to hunt and be able to kill what they want whether it is a spike or a booner.

Can't speak for the whole state but my buck success rate is not very good. I haven't killed a buck since 2007. Too picky! Of course I only bow hunt and shoot older bucks. I have passed several mature bucks but the size of their antlers wasn't what I wanted. Personally, I hate a one buck limit!

I am pretty sure if there is a way to check it that military killed most of the deer last year.Most soldiers have no where else to hunt.Most soldiers in the 101st know they are deployed about every other year so they take what ever buck comes along,as it should be.Most may only be stationed there for only a couple years.They have no reason not to shoot the 1.5 year old bucks.
Fort Campbell is just fine,leave it as it is!
