Because they don't REALLY want EVERYONE shooting 3. That would mess up the goal numbers. Any time a limit is set on anything, they have a formula to estimate how many hunters will kill 0, how many will limit out per day, how many will limit out per season, how many will hunt only 1-3 days, how many will hunt A LOT of days, etc, etc. If you let everyone kill all 3 in one day, then more bucks would be killed all season. Those guys that only hunt 1 day per year (maybe a dog drive or a paid hunt) might kill 3 bucks whereas under the current system they would only kill 1 for the season. etc, etc. so, the math looks like it wouldn't matter (and to some hunters it wouldn't), but statewide it would change the numbers. So, they might would have to drop it to 2 instead of 3 or limit how many days you could kill bucks.
