I agree

because our deer population is doing a lot better than our hunter recruitment.Doskil":29knm2v8 said:knightrider":29knm2v8 said:Kids vs adults I can't see where any adult could have a problem with this, care to explain exactly how it's going to negate anything?Doskil":29knm2v8 said:I guess but it can also negate the effect of requiring adults to abide by restrictions?
Sure there obviously is a biological reason for the antler restrictions right?
So why exempt kids from what you are trying to do to improve the deer herd on this particular property?

I got lucky and killed a spike when i was 12 years old on my first hunt and ive been hooked ever since. Ive killed my share of spikes and 4 pointers and 6 pointers. Now i wont shoot a deer thats under 3.5 years old. Its a natural progression. I know when my 3 year old son is big enough to shoot a gun im going to take him to my best spot i have and let him shoot the first thing that comes through in hopes of hooking him for life. I think us adults can handle the youngsters shooting a few of our young bucks a few days out of the year.
This. I couldn't agree more.

Adults can bow hunt during the youth day in NC.
It turned out not to be a big deal allowing both to hunt.
