RE: Ask for stricter AR in Pa 1/23
Ulysses/Wingbar:
This is the most sensible, rational thought you've ever posted. I AGREE 100%.
Bolt down the antler restriction across the board. Button bucks should get a buck tag. Kids can still shoot the first deer that they see, and benefit as they will from enjoying a successful hunt.
I'd support a four-point rule across the state.
I think we could also use a width restriction which would permit the taking of large deer without many points. For example, last year, I took a huge, 19" 6 point that would NOT have been legal had I been hunting just five miles west. I also had to pass on a very mature forkhorn that was roughly 16" outside.
I would support a rule that permitted the taking of any antlered deer with a 15 inch or greater spread, regardless of the number of points.
