[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5819038, member: 1409"] Just my opinion, but the 2-buck limit seems to be the best number when considering all the other factors, at least right now in Tennessee. One factor not listed in the above list is hunters' [B][U]personal limits on "practical" harvests[/U][/B], i.e. just how many deer are "practical" annually for a particular hunter to be willing to harvest (or process, or drag, or deal with in any way). For a majority of TN deer hunters currently, this appears to be no more than two (2), never mind for many it is one, and for a few it is without limit. When the "practical" hunter harvest limit is considered, some deer managers may lean towards a 1-buck limit for the primary purpose of increasing the doe harvest. The reality is that if a hunter wants 2 deer annually, most hunters still prefer 2 bucks over 1 buck & 1 doe. So a 1-buck limit does in fact help increase the doe harvest, and can be used for that purpose if needed. [/QUOTE]
