Default Pa Antler Restrictions

OK lets leave HR out of this for a moment and talk only about AR's

I'm putting in as many choices as I can think of to keep this fair.

If you feel I missed a possible response, tell me and we'll put it in the answer list

For those that hit this thing early, I apologize that all the choices did not appear the first time.

I voted for width AR. This would allow for older deer with less than AR points to be harvested.

I'm against the current setup because it doesn't allow you to take an inferior gened mature buck, actually I'm against the state regulating antlers all together.

That of course would work better than what we got, but if the fawn slayers would lay off the little bucks we wouldn't need any restrictons at all.[&:]

In 2002 we harvested 52K 2.5+ buck before any bucks were saved by ARs ,but after 6 years of ARs we harvested 48K 2.5 buck. prior to ARs hunter didn't lay off of little buck but we harvested more 2.5+ buck in 2002 than we did in 2007. so what is your point?

i would think the ar spread would be hard what would you go by inches or outside of ears
people would complain that they cant judge the width heck most complain its to hard to count them now
but i think it would get rid of some inferior buck
