I checked current harvest to date for the Unit L counties I hunted this year (off the top of my head): Henderson, Madison, Carrol, Gibson, Stewart.
ALL of them have MORE bucks being killed than does-and it's really not even close.
Sure, everybody has that person that they heard of (neighbor's brother-in-law's cousin's roommate from college's mechanic) that kills a bunch of does. I get that and I believe it (I've killed up to 10 myself) but when those add up it's STILL less than the number of bucks killed under the two buck limit.
I'm having a hard time blaming the 3 doe/day limit. I'm one of the exceptions that has killed 3 in a day on multiple occasions, but I do so out of convenience and to keep hunting pressure down on an area. If I can kill three does in one hour, it's much less pressure than hunting an area multiple times to kill them one at a time. Admittedly, I haven't killed three in a day in a few years. Rarely do I kill two in a day, really. We just don't kill as many does as we used to AS A WHOLE.
