I totaly agree with you, I have wondered why other states havnt done this as well. This last seaon was problely the last I will hunt because I am getting transfered. Ft Sill produced some monster bucks this year and you can only take one buck during the rifle season but the bad thing it is during the rut. The amount of mature bucks taken this year on Ft Sill was astonashing. They say it was the best season in a long time. I just think if they would keep the gun hunters out of the rut they would have many season like it. But I understand what you are saying.
