RE: anyone in NY mad about the antler restrictions
No Steve, because you are quick to point out that it would be unhealthy to target "60% of the 1 1/2 year bucks in NY that are 6 point or better", so I posted a question to you:
"1. How is targeting ANY buck, at any time, better?"
If you answered the first one, the second one was quite obvious... YOU seem concerned about the health of the herd in that targeting "60% of the 1 1/2 year bucks in NY that are 6 point or better" (your words regarding 3pt restrictions), would not be beneficial, so my question was:
Why is targeting ALL OF THEM, ALL OF THE TIME, BETTER?
You read my post, so maybe you chose to skip that one intentionally? It's a fairly obvious question when you are so adamant that antler restrictions would lead to the disproportionate targeting of 1 1/2 y.o. bucks... but the current regulation basically is "shoot any buck" anyway. So what's the difference?
PS.. JF5 posed the same question to you in different words..
In your own words:
"Look forward to your explanation. "
