[QUOTE="AT Hiker, post: 4320561, member: 10019"] Simple, it's one more buck. Some say opportunity was lost (even though hunters rarely ever killed 3 bucks) but those that did kill 2 have to stop buck hunting now as before they didn't. Biologically both a 2 or 3 buck limit is fine (according to many experts with some on here, some no longer visit this site now ). Some say the 3 buck limit was a great compromise between hunter satisfaction and biological reasoning. Some say the 2 buck limit will have a slightly better impact (increase overall buck age structure and therefore increase potential buck harvest for all hunters). The biggest issue some have appears to be that the limit debate/change was a backdoor deal. IMO, the whole thing was a screw up from the word go. It started with a misleading representation of TN buck age structure, then a biased survey then snowballed into a debate that left some commissioners in the dark. Some say this turned the whole debate into a political fiasco. So what is the advantage of a third buck? Good question and besides getting more bang for your buck (pun intended) good luck getting a statement that is not biased in some fashion. I will venture to say our herd is in pretty good shape, now some people want to go one direction and others liked the path we were on. Notice the name calling is back? Sure sign of a debate that is lost. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
