[QUOTE="Volbuck777, post: 5188123, member: 20960"] Sir, that all sounds good but if you’ll look back last year, chuck swan had a big showing of hunters compared to previous years ( because covid). You’re saying 2,350 buck tags were issued to hunters. That number is pointless to share. Because, by the end of the year only 100 (and I’m rounding up) bucks we’re killed. Isn’t the swan 24,000 acres. That’s 1 buck for every 240 acres of land. That’s nothing. Why do you think that blue tongue hit the swan so hard? Population has to be controlled. If we as hunters don’t do it, God obviously will. Like I said before the swan has been hit twice with it, in just a few years. I’m all for killing a big buck, in fact most of the time if it’s not 4.5 or older I don’t shoot. I don’t hunt their anymore because I’m not the kind of hunter that they’re trying to reach. I’m a big buck hunter, and kill a doe here or there, obviously you are to. But imagine if you will going to the back of a truck with 20 people gathered around to look at a 4 pt. It was awesome. Someone actually seen one, and killed. Remember those days. That’s when hunting was fun. I hunted their a few years ago and my buddy killed a little 4 pt that I swear couldn’t have been 80 pounds. When we got out and checked it in at the station it set me back to when I was a kid. Everyone one gathered to see this yearling buck. It didn’t have to have 10pts on its head to be a trophy. He killed 1 of 3 bucks on that hunt it was a feat in itself. I was proud to be part of it. I’ll say this I’m all for building a better deer herd and seeing big bucks, but I’m not sure it starts by diminishing hunter numbers and upping the point restriction.
