An Interesting read and how antler restriction remove the best, perhaps slot limits on age classes would work better

I say none of these mandated restrictions. I don't feel like being told how to spend my hard earned money. And that is exactly what Antler restrictions do. That said on private land if I was hunting on land other than my own and they said they want to focus on shooting deer with X properties and let those with Y walk, then of course you gotta respect the wishes of the owner. I'm all for self imposed restrictions, just not those imposed by the government in the form of ARs

I wasn't delighted when I realized it was him either but he should have stayed in the hood

Bull. All bucks can get bigger racks if left to age. Where i hunt in PA, on gamelands, tons of hunters, with antler restrictions there are plenty of shooter bucks. I've  all but stopped hunting NY stateland. Probably for the first time in my life, not get a NY bow license  this yr and just concentrate  on PA this fall its that good. Antler restrictions work.
