I have heard many mixed feelings on Wisconsin's Earn-A-Buck program. I personally like the program, my area like most areas there is a very overpopulation of does. The buck doe ratio is very out of proportion and since most land around is private there isn't much anyone can do to change this without a change in regulations. I havn't had any problems getting my does, since I bow hunt, I filled them both the first two weekends I hunted. I can see why some would dislike the program though, being if they're unable to get a doe. The special EAB-T Zone hunts could be a few weeks earlier for us bow hunters, but for the disabled hunters and the young men serving in the military, they're able to use these hunts to tag a buck. For them it's a great opportunity to get that buck of their dreams when they may have their guard down and I think its a great idea. Good luck to all in the upcoming opener!
