[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 4836840, member: 1409"] Just saying, especially if you cannot answer the above questions, the antler restrictions there at best, are of little value, and many hunters and deer managers as well see them (there) as doing more harm than good, both to the hunters and to the prospects of producing larger-antlered older bucks. Again, just how much difference does it make how many bucks get saved by those antler restrictions on the PI WMA when many of those bucks "saved" are circling the island with their rut-ranging, walking into the rifle range of those hunting the private lands "same as statewide"? And of course, some will get run over, some will drown, although any these issues are typically present everywhere. Want more of the best antlered young bucks to live to maturity? The most successful method is less hunting across the entire rut range of all those bucks. There are very few places where that is even possible, other than as allowed per statewide deer regs. But who would want a statewide season in TN of only two weekends, archery only? [/QUOTE]
