Default RE: maybe some changes in missouri

First, my disclaimer, I prefer bowhunting over gunhunting but do both.

IMO...for the number of quality bucks taken each year to increase to the levels of our neighboring states, Iowa and Illinois, the gun season needs to be overhauled. I think the 4-point rule is agreat startand I hope theyinstitute itstatewide. I would like to see a shotgun or muzzleloader only gun season as well...no high powered rifles for deer hunting. The gun season alsoneeds tobe one of two things: shorter, similar to Illinois, ormoved to December and not open during the middle of the rut, similar to Iowa.

As far as when the anterless season should be, I would prefer it to be in October so there's no chance you shoot a buck that may have dropped his antlers early.
