Michigan -

Limit of one buck per season. The "restricted" tag has to go (a buck must have at least 4 points on one side to use the restricted tag under current rules).

All it does is encourage hunters to shoot small, young bucks. After all, if a nice buck comes by later, I still have my restricted tag!

Our buck to doe ratio is ridiculously out of whack. The restricted tag is the reason why. If we only had one buck tag, hunters would start being more selective and letting some young bucks grow up. And if they wanted meat, they'd shoot more does which is exactly what we need in many areas of the state.

Down with the "Restricted" Tag!!!!
