Thank goodness they do employ biologist, other wise they would make decisions based on social issues.....like they say AR's are.

Maybe in the future they can make decisions based on social diseases? The hunters who might have one will be restricted to hunting coyotes ONLY at night, this way they will have less of a chance spreading their diseases by sleeping around. LOL

1 buck tag a year would just mean that first buck wouldnt get tagged.

Here's the way I look at it. We can manage by "one size fits all"from the adirondacks to the capital area to the farmlands of western NY and know that we are screwing up in some of those places. Or we

I would like to see the one buck rule myself. I think ar's are rediculous, unless you do your own on your own property.

Can't help that guys aren't good enough hunters to kill the older bucks..lol.. seriously though the reason for that I think is because hunters want to always play close to the rule... in other words they are still settling for the least that can be taken instead of realizing that there are more 3 and 4 year olds to hunt and hunting them. Unfortunately the 2.5 year olds aren't yet as experienced as the older bucks and will still be the easier ones to kill... AR's have done there job by balancing out the buck herd, now it is up to the hunter to do theirs... kill the deer... and never say never.. say yet... as hunters start to adapt over time the kill numbers will climb.

I think it has alot to do with education and field knowledge honestly, I see alot of hunters that can't tell the difference between a 1.5 and so on. Its not rocket science, just deer hunting.

Did you read the home work I gave you yet? Pages 42-47 discuss all of this in great detail, agree with it or not, the info the DEC provided seems logical, well thought out and accurate.

It is very logical.. and I do agree with it...I especially liked the parts where participation neither dropped or increased in the AR areas and hunter satisfaction is slightly up in those areas as well.. and that most hunters still support AR's in those areas... the thing that I really thought was interesting was that hunters reported that the AR programs have made them more apt to voluntarily pass on younger bucks in non-AR areas... all seems very positive to me.

Yeah, I heard it can effect the brain after a while. Studies have shown that for some bizarre reason those effected like repeating the letters A & R. Real strange, ain't it?

That is stange, did you read anything about those that eat chipmunks and make up tall tales? I heard the stripes on the pelt is what does it, there is a chemical in there that makes you nutty if you eat one.

There's a whole text book written about that syndrome, Doe. It's about 2000 pages long so I honestly haven't read it. Hell, I have a hard enough time with Doc's long posts, I couldn't imagine reading that book.

Sure it sounds positive, if you ignore the negative parts..haha

I have to tie my head up so it don't hit the desk when I attempt to read some of the long winded post's here some days.

Speaking of social issues.. I like how Doewhacker and Steve took time out from "Occupy Wall Street" to post on this thread. Always glad to hear your imput.

No, that wasn't us. We have jobs. But your excused for the mistake. You admitted to not being able to see well recently, so it was probably an honest mistake with your impaired vision. Have you gotten those tri-focals yet?

Didn't see anything that I'd call negative... remember.. I'm antler your doe... I can see where you'd find negatives I like the one buck rule anyway

I was refering to some of the seemingly double talk, not the DEC's, the hunters. Apparently we want it all, freedom to choose what to shoot, big bucks, ect..

If ar's showed up, how many bad long shots will be taken at large deer potentially wounding them..how many super ultra aggressive pushes will be taking place , along with more line crossers, and most likely a bow season push starting..think these wont happen? Im assuming with a new ar in place more land owners will put the so to speak "foot" down and state land will fill up quite quickly with "homeless"hunters..

Only so many doe can be taken, along with more buttons cause of inevitabillity..yahoos will be pushing harder and farther.

Availability of hunting locals will become an issue and if the ultimate goal is bigger and better headgear then i foresee a pecking order dictating your take: landowner and friends/and family get first dibs and whoever is left can pick up the scraps..so get your does mounted..unless its state land..then its every man for himself which in my head is a recipie for disaster..my uncle(whom owns the land here) has already stated without hesitation the non friends/family will get the boot if such regulations were to take place..im sure hes not the only 1
