Default RE: i think this restriction should be everywhere

I think the restriction should be based on the "class" of buck, not the number of points.Lots of immature5, 6, 7 and 8 points are taken. If it were restricted to 120 class or higher then you would really see an improvement in the number of big mature bucks. Also buck to doe ratios would be much more improved and many more truly mature bucks would live to breed thus greatly improving the health of the herd over a simple 3 point on a side rule. Not to mention hunter satisfaction. Much greater opportunities to harvest a mature animal. I don't think we should settle for a "partial" fix like the 3 point rule.
