RE: Question For Oklahoma Hunters
"They are also thinking of making Southwest OK like a management area. There you would only be able to shoot one buck."
i also hunt mostly in SW Oklahoma and would welcome such a plan. You are right,lots offolks are passing up immature bucks. Unfortunately, there are stillsome of the kind that will shoot a spike or fork horn. i do not have a problem with immature bucks being killed during youth deer season.
i grew up in WV in the 40s and 50s. There were lots of deer with huge antlers. Then the state of WV got greedy and started selling deer.It all went to pot in about 10 years. Now the bucksituation is worse in WV than it is in OK.
