RE: NY do u think we should have a antler restrictions?
I want meat in my freezer before I worry about antlers on the wall. With the decreased number of deer in my area; and the rapid decline in hunter numbers; the last thing we need are antler restrictions; Thats my opinion. Finding quality hunting land is getting harder and harder to come by; finding the time to hunt, and the money spent involved; I see absolutley no positives from antler restrictions. A guy who can hunt 1 or 2 weekends a year has to pass on a spike buck for some "trophy" hunters desire is rediculous. You can pass up that spike if you want; but don't tell me I have to also; especially when I'm Bow or Muzzleloader hunting. If you want to impose something; lets impose a bounty on Coyotes.
Just my opinion.
