[QUOTE="JhnDeereMan, post: 5057385, member: 21586"] My opinion is it rolls back to money. Our season opens early with liberal limits. Therefore you see a bunch of out of state license plates driving up and down the roads which means the agency cashes in. For years the turkey population in TN managed itself. Restoration was very successful and turkeys were thriving which led to liberal seasons and bag limits. That in turn led to a budget figure of license sales every year due to turkey season. We are at a management decision point now on how to best take care of the turkey population and no one likes to hear the word budget cut so instead of making season start date delays that would help greatly, the limit gets lowered that has minimal effect on the budget or turkeys but makes everyone feel warm and fuzzy.
