What do you think they will do with the season this year? I have been hearing a few rumors and wanted to see what you guys have heard....Sombody said they are going to change the rules on bucks to four points on one side.......

Dunno .... I hope they go 1 buck any size and 1 doe (2 does in very few areas that need it).
If I had it my way ? 7 days of muzzleoader, 7 days rifle, 3 months archery, 1 buck and 1 doe

stealthycat,
Where do you hunt....sounds like you are one of the guys that aren't seeing much deer in your area.......I think that quality managing the bucks is the way to go....as far as does go....as long as it is not over populated, one doe for meat is enough.
We have a bunch of deer in our area......I saw deer every time I hunted this year.

Well if i had it my way 2 months of modern gun , 3 weeks of muzzle loader and 3 months of archery. a 5 deer limit , 2 bucks (three point rule ) and 3 does! plus bonus doe tags available.
and i think this still wouldnt get our buck /doe ratio right!
now this is for south arkansas .
