Aren't we all Americans?
nyantler replied to Caveman's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Morality is very relative... ones persons morality is not anothers... I believe we get many of our moral views from our faith.. and because there are so many faith with so many degrees of morality... its hard to say any one thing is absolutely immoral... my moral standards are probably much higher than some of the other people I know... yet less than others.. but I don't consider my self to be immoral in any way. Impossible sometimes.. but not immoral Our fabulous concept of a "melting pot" has led us to where we are today... -

3 Bow Hunts With Big Rack Taken!

you only need to be careful of what you post if you are worried that you mght get caught doing something you shouldn't if not post away..

LMAO.. I honestly thought you were asian or something

I haven't seen the buck personally yet, but what i can tell from the pics is the g-1's alone were nearly six inches different in length... when you start adding up all the differences with such a big buck with so many points the deductions add up quickly especially in the non symmetry differences. Thats what makes the world record hansen buck so special is that it has such a huge typical 6x6 frame with very few deductions for symmetry..
-
It isn't just the nontipical points that are deducted for a tyipcal rack.. also the difference in corresponding measurements from the left and right sides are deductions in the B&C system .. yes it would lose that entire matching dimension

I have always been an iron sight only guy.. but eyesight is starting to wain.. I dread the day that I will need optics on my firearm -
Yup.. I have never liked the 3 on a side point restriction... although it does make a guy take a second look at a buck before shooting it.. maybe it's a start?

I have a GPS but never use it.. its older and takes way to long to use... I still use the trusty old compass in th ADK's.. I'd love to find a simple GPS as well.. makes it so much easier to find your way back to remote locations

- 100% wrong in regards to me. A reply with zero logic and fact, nothing but pure emotion.And while nyantler's math shows it may be possible for the 1/3 to take all the 1 1/2 bucks, no rational person would believe that that 1/3 accounts for 75% of the kill year in and year out. Fact is and everyone honest knows that a lot of the alleged 2/3 supporters don't fell strongly enough about it to practice it voluntarily. In fact the majority of them would eagerly target the nearly 60% of 1 1/2 bucks in the 3 wmu's around me that are 6pt or better. And be proud of following AR by killing the easiest buck in the woods because it had enough points. Steve.. i agree that most hunters don't practice what they preach.. and it entirely possible that what you say is most likely the case.. but you have to admit now... that it is mathmatically possible I really think that although a lot of guys think AR is a good idea... they will not voluntarily impose one on themselves ... you see.. if the state imposed AR on them... they would be more comfortable saying they didn't get a buck that year because they didn't see one big enough... they don't lose face that way... but as things stand... even though they like the idea of what AR's might do for the buck age class.. they would sooner cut out their tongue than have to tell their buddies they didn't get a buck..

OMG finally someone who understands the whole deer management concept!!.. Welcome aboard Scot! Nice to have someone else that knows what he's talking about.

oh and that would still leave 16% that didn't have an opportunity to kill a buck..

well if there are 400,000 deer hunters and 100,000 bucks killed... that means at most 25% of hunters killed all the bucks (that is if nobody took 2 bucks) if 75% of those bucks were 1.5 years old that would mean that 75,000 bucks were killed by 75,000 hunters. That would mean 18% of the total hunters killed 1.5 year olds... so it is mathmatically possible that even less than 1/3 of the hunters took 1.5 year old bucks... meaning that it is entirely possible that 2/3 of the hunter population are still passing on yearlings.

it would be nice but you can not expect everyother hunter to be able to tell the difference from a nice doe and a button buck. mistaking a button for a doe happens all to much and i can see that being an issue and also a sort of contridiction to the system if AR was the way. the current system we have doesn't protect buttons but we still have plenty of 1.5 year olds each year... protecting the 1.5 year olds even with the same button kill that we have today would still produce older bucks each year to fill in age classes.. the doe killing idea I speak of would not be a law but would just be a way of reducing button kill if that is a concern to you.. not shooting lone antlerless deer and waiting for multiple antlerless deer to be present and selecting the biggest of the group is one of the ways to reduce the button kill... not asking guys to be able to tell the difference between a button and a nice doe... but as long as we're on the subject... if you look at the head of a button buck it is short nosed and round... an adult doe does not have the same short nose but a longer not round head making them easier to pick out if you need a comparison
