The only solution in his mind is to: Severely limit the doe kill, and eliminate the antler restrictions, thus farming 1.5 year old spikes and forkies by the buttload, so that 1 out of every 5 stump sitters can have their buck by 10 am on opening day.
In other words:....go back to the way it was 20 years ago.
That is the only thing that will make him happy.
