RE: Question For Oklahoma Hunters
There was a meeting tonite in Enid. I went and there were about 50 people there.
There was a lot of talk about the deer limit thing. Guys mentioning antler restrictions, fewer buck tags, more doe tags....all sorts of things. The biologists are against antler restrictions claiming there are a lot of 1 1/2 deer w/ 6-8 points or on the flip side, old deer w/ few points = this would not help.
There were a lot of things suggested that make a lot of sense, but its convincing the dept, then the legislature to act on it.
as for the meeting:
They had an open discussion first to air ideas and suggestions. Then they went through all the proposed changes. Several items about some part of a river in E. Ok. then they got to the deer stuff. One other proposal is allowing youth hunts to take a doe (like they can now) and add a buck tag. This was pretty ademently opposed. After this, I left. They still had some things about fur bearers (river otters) and other misc stuff I really didnt care about.
If any one does, I can post more about it. Heck, I can even scan it in and put it as an attachment (depending on size).
If there are anymore upcoming, GET OUT THERE AND MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD!
