RE: Change in Ark. deer rules?
One other thing. ya'll know as well as I do, that there are bunches of deer that are not registered. for instance- a hunter shoots what he thinks is a doe, but turns out to be a spike with 2 or 3" spikes. he don't want to use one of his buck tags, so he either don't register it, or he registers it as a doe.
there are a lot of deer that are not registered, for one reason or another, which tends to make the agfc think there's fewer deer.
so, they say we have to shorten season and or, reduce the bag limit.
remember, thats what happened when they closed the turkey season for 9 years. there were no turkeys being registered, which the agfc beleived the turkey population was down, so they closed it. simply because of the greedy hunters that wanted to kill more than their legal limit!<img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>
I'm afraid the same thing is gonna happen to deer season if those same greedy hunters, don't start registering their deer!<img src=icon_smile_angry.gif border=0 align=middle>
