I don'tthink anyone has insinuated there should be no
game laws and so if you shot any deer in March that
would make you a poacher.Shooting a fawn while in
season would be considered an antlerless, which would
also be illegal ina large number of counties (poaching)
but in those that are allowed antlerless I'm sure it happens.
I would not do it unless Iknew the population was out
of handandI (in my dreams) had already filled but one
last anterless tag and it was the lasthours of my hunt.

Sorry, I know I said I'd back off butTPWDplays a large
part of what I enjoy, much more than just deer hunting.
This isin no way the best way to mangage the deer
population. Sorry to be a broken record (skipping CD for
you young guys) but the intent of this is to me blatantly
aboutforcinganyone who wants to hunt deer, even on
thier own property, into TROPHY ANTLER GROWTH REQUIRED
whether you like it, want it or care about it or not.
Adding another "undesireable" buck to the bag limit will
no doubt give us common "meat hunters" some hope to
hang on too but don't think this is some great gift from the
generous folks above to the great unwashed. This is the
only way to eliminate those dern "culls" from the herd. Just
imagine, someday maby we won't have to worry about
them contaminating the gene pool at all.

OK, now I'm just ranting, I'll really try to stop this time.
I mean it.
I hope.

God bless and happy horn hunting,
PK
