Curmudgeon Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 i got the email at 4:39pm. You're quick!! Been checking their site and checked just last night and it wasn't posted yet. Not quick, just lucky. In this kind of weather I only check my email a couple of times each day. It came in just before I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phade Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 These reports rarely generate answers and closure for me. It typically generates more questions. I am curious to see how the DEC responds to their DMP allocations this year, targets, etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizz1219 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 20 % of DMP tags go to button bucks says a lot of people need to learn how to tell the difference between a button buck and a small doe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, I whacked a BB in my early stages of hunting thinking it was a doe. Block head now is pretty easy to determine it's a button buck. And typically they tend to be bachelor deer all by themselves from what I've noticed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizz1219 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Saves us 10,000 bucks every year.... Worth it to me to educate people... I know some will shoot them knowing what they are... can't stop that... their choice... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolc123 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 If anyone is ashamed or heartbroken over an accidental BB take in WNY, feel free to shoot me a PM and I will drive out and take it off your hands if I can. I would often be willing to sign over an unused DMP in exchange (9F or 9H) for the carcass. It would be great if you could save me the liver also.

Four Season Whitetail's Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Agree, I whacked a BB in my early stages of hunting thinking it was a doe. Block head now is pretty easy to determine it's a button buck. And typically they tend to be bachelor deer all by themselves from what I've noticed. And most always the first deer to come out into a field or food plot. They are free spirits with not a care in the world. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 i make it a point to not shoot button bucks as do others in the area. kind of frowned upon out this way for one reason or another. doesn't necessarily help your hunting as they relocate. it helps the future buck numbers for those around you though. besides I've processed them before. practically the same amount of work for a fraction of the meat. PITA if you ask me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
