Why do we need to give them a chance to prove it?? Many think the deer heard is fine and have no problem continuing to hunt as we have for years. Bowhunting is time consuming and hard enough as it is. Why "punish" someone for being lucky enough to harvest a 3 point buck, spike, 5 point, etc. I had gone 2 years without the opportunity to take doe (no permits) and I didn't complain.But I would be ratherPOed if someone decides that my hunting is over (I get a buck with my bow)because they want to have "better" buck/doe ratios. I'm just not buying it.
