RE: Okay, This is the way it is!
If you have 9, no need for 9a. But the maybe the real debate would be to remove 9? Just cause I'm in one of the lucky states that allows two bucks and/or I can hunt multiple states.
Would be nice to be able to enter a bigger buck later in the year to help out the team, as long as all other rules apply I dont see the big deal...
Just my two cents though.
