RE: Should deer hunting be only with shotguns?
I would probably be in the minority here by saying, in this state, I would not care if they made it totally slug gun only. I don't know if anyone has clarified this or not, but, I DO NOT want buckshot allowed as it was in years past. Slug gun and muzzle loader would be fine though. Around here, there are very few shots outside of 300 yards with even fewer hunters able to shoot accurately out even farther. This would enable more of the hunters skills to be engaged to tag an animal. I know way too many hunters in this state (Missouri) that as soon as they see the shine of an antler, whether it be 100, 200, 300, ect. yards out, just start laying out the lead like there is no tomorrow! Infact, I would greatly be in favor for slug and muzzle loader hunting only for this state.
