I'm not arguing the fact to travel to kill a big deer as we already have plans to go to Ohio this coming season for a chance at out of state slammer. But the reason other states have the quality deer hunting and laws you speak of are are due to the DNR In those states care about the whitetails and the hunters who chase them. It's never to late to fix a problem! I'm not totally worried about myself with it, but what about my kids and others? The deer will be completely demolished by the time they get a chance to pull a trigger the way things are going, and to be completely honest I'm not ok with that. I look forward to spending time in the woods with my kids and if the deer are not there to be taken then I won't get the chance to do that. This rant by ME isn't necessarily about racks it's about numbers. Did you know that when it comes down to genetics that the Doe is more important then the Buck it self? Can't lay eggs without a hen just sayin......
