ryndisher;3821069]Really? Please explain how letting a 2 year old buck hit 3 years would be "bad for the rest of the state".
Because AR would not protect a significant number of them in my area. Do you mean 1 1/2 (1st antlered season) to 2 1/2 (2nd antlered season) or 2 1/2 to 3 1/2. If you mean pass the 1 1/2 bucks, in my area 60% of them are 6 point or better. If you mean 2 1/2, then the figure is probably closer to 90% or better. Either way a 3pt/side AR restriction will not save many and will target the best of those age groups. A definate negative for my area.
