[QUOTE="gobblinfool, post: 4073143, member: 12696"] This thread isn't meant to be a rehash or a slamming of the new rule.....just wanted to hear your thoughts... Personally, yes for me, why, in the past I tried shooting a 2.5 or older during archery, knowing that I still had two tags to fill, but now I am more choosier (SP), primarily because I want a buck tag for Gun season. My goal this year is to only shoot if 3.5 or older with archery, otherwise I want to shoot mature does. I have a KY tag/bonus still left.....have filled one doe tag opening weekend. My goal there is 3.5 or better whether it be archery or rifle. I had a forky in velvet at 10yds for 30 minutes on opening weekend.....shot over him to kill his sister. I got the Ft Campbell "Tag", so if I get a quality buck in TN, I may go there some. Ultimate goal......to kill as many deer as possible, to help out anyone in need of food. My father in law just contacted me and said he has a friend that wants me to come down and shoot as many as possible. People are begging me to shoot deer, but I want to make sure I am taking mature does....hard to get people to understand you cant eradicate their deer problem....even have had people asked why I am using a bow vs gun.......
