[QUOTE="deerfever, post: 4995746, member: 13434"] I said it in an earlier post , I quit trying for the most part to figure out some of the things that are done and just relax. The doe only thing makes no sense whatsoever but I am not a biologist by no means so hopefully someone can explain it.. Some say that the area has met it's quota of bucks? Then why do some areas move back and forth between either sex to doe only? If you have antler restrictions then why would you need a buck quota ? I am asking these questions as maybe one of you know the answer biologically speaking. My thinking is they want more doe harvest but here is the problem with that. Take a look at how many openings are in the doe only areas. No one is going in those but locals that may have already killed their buck. I noticed one doe only area with 0 people in it. If no one is in them then how will doe get harvested? Why not leave them either sex so people can actually go in them and hunt and get areas ? Put a list of the areas you need more doe harvest and ask the hunters to do their part to help. I know I would cooperate but can't help at all if I can't get an area. No way I drive 3 hours for doe only. Some of the areas that were doe only this weekend have only been open a few times the whole season that I know of, so they have met a quota already? It's not that they don't have areas it's that more are doe only than either sex. Again I am not complaining but just trying to understand it as they never did this in the past . I will simply hope next weekend has more open , if not it's just part of the process. [/QUOTE]
