Default RE: Point Restrictions Isn't the answer....

Fullback first thing in Va. we only get 4 tags with our initial license, other than that you speak the truth in regards to Va.

I like New Jerseys method, they call it "earn a buck", what this means is you have to kill a doe before you can take a buck!! This is a great idea in my book, if you do not kill a doe, you can't kill a buck. This program will definantly decrease doe numbers and increase buck numbers. I would like to see Va. put a program like this into effect.

I figured out that if you hunted all seasons every day, killed your limit every day, and bought additional doe tags in Va. you could legally kill 3 bucks and over 100 doe in a single season.

You are right that some guys are strictly horn hunters, I am a deer hunter and love venison, I take every deer I can legally as long as it is not a fawn.
