[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 4492587, member: 1409"] Between 1998 and the 2017 deer season (that's actually 20 seasons), for how many of those years could anyone kill 3 bucks during our main "deer season" (referred to as "rifle" season)? Just saying, the buck limit was in fact 2 for most hunters for most of these years. How is anyone's preference for a 3-buck (yours?) vs. a 2-buck (or even a 1-buck or an 11-buck) limit whatever preference any less or more "imposing" of one's beliefs? There were many hunters in 1998 demanding the buck limit go back to 11 because it was their right to kill that many, and no one else had any right to "impose" a different preference on them. And they had the legitimate argument that we had more deer, more bucks than ever before, some even claiming there was no reason for there to even be a buck limit. Actually, your imposition suggests you don't believe we should have any game laws at all? I know you don't really think that; just saying I believe you're dividing hunters with a false imposition of buck limits carrying so much weight. There has been relatively little change in our buck limits since 1998. Yet our statewide opportunity to kill deer has increased dramatically over these years. And you have to be a "trophy" buck hunter? :) As in "any" buck is a better trophy than a doe? [u]I also know not one person who would be in favor of losing opportunities[/u]. But I do know many (actually most) who believe they've gained deer hunting opportunities over the past decade. The opportunities to kill a deer, not just a buck, have increased dramatically. [/QUOTE]
