RE: New York Antler Restrictions State Wide?
Some people don't want to be educated because they are blood hungry just to drop whatever comes along. Many have changed through education and watching hunting television programs where they practice AR/QDM on "teenager" bucks. I have to say watching the Outdoor Channel has effected how I hunt and pass on deer.
Laws restricting the harvest of small juviniles and arresting law breakers is sadly the only alternative to make things like mother nature intended.
Here in Greene county, we couldn't harvest does during rifle. Didn't bother me a bit. I just hunted does and meat with the bow and muzzleloader. One guy that doesn't hunt with a bow was upset because he uses just a rifle so I gave him one of my bow kills. he's actually going for his bowhunters safety coarse next year. A new bowhunter. It worked out good!
