sorry if i sounded rude but I find it really hard to see any decent results from this.
I can understand what ya say about peoplenot wanting to change. But they way i see it is that all this would do is give the deer one extra year. let me think this through. a 1 .5 yr fork horn is under AR so he is good for this year but next year that same buck is open game. now if he somehow makes it through the open year and gets to the next AR year then that would be beneficial.

OverallI might see an increase the first year but I dont see any long term results coming from this. unless they are just implementing it to try and slowly intregrate it to a full blown AR.

but then again I could be wrong. my wife says i'm wrong all the time.
