RE: Indiana
One of the arguments i have heard against a shorter gun season is it makes people less selective instead of more selective. If someones knows they have two weeks to kill a buck they are more likely to pass on a smaller deer but if they only have three days they might just take the first one that walks by them. As far as the one buck rule in Indiana it has not had any effect on the overall buck harvest. The numbers have stayed constant from the pre OBR to the post OBR. The only thing that has changed is the weapon they are taken with.
