[QUOTE="JCDEERMAN, post: 5617295, member: 5787"] It seems most agree the 2 week delay in the opener is beneficial, but the new harvest number of 2 is in question. I’ve been on both ends of the spectrum killing 0 and killing 3 or 4 a year. These changes take time to see trends. What I do know is our population has dropped drastically the last 5 years. Don’t jump to conclusions. I think most of us are saying the same things…..the delayed opener WILL help to initiate GOOD nests, but the limit is debatable. Personally, I’m ok with 2 or 3. I’ve seen more lonesome hens that has seemed to have nested than I have ever seen. That seems like a positive to me. Yea we may only see 2 weeks of awesome hunting, and then it’s dead. BUT I’m willing to have that sacrifice for the overall flock. If this expands the overall flock in 5 years, I’m all for it and THEN we can maybe adjust the limit. Time will tell. [/QUOTE]
