Alabama hunting land just got more valuable. ....a lot of people would disagree and say Mississippi land just got more valuable. Fewer does killed = more deer seen. Not sure if I agree with that, but a lot of people would.

Yea I disagree Mississippi has better hunting and is managed better.
Shooting every doe you see does not give you bigger bucks. The only reason we are seeing some bigger deer in Alabama is some people in some areas are exercising trigger control. In other areas/places they are not. Just depends on you and your neighbors.
No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.

But in terms of deer numbers, I think Alabama and Mississippi are very similar, from what I've seen, and there are very different ideas of what the population is. Mississipi apparently thinks they don't have enough deer and Bama clearly thinks they either have too many deer (deer a day), or favors landowners making their own decisions. I like having more deer, but also the ability to make my own decisions on my own land.

Good move on Mississippi's part. It's been needed for several years in most zones.
Ya'll are just overthinking it now

Wish that would happen here in the yella hammer state. You can still legally kill 100+ in Bama. The differences are quite remarkable and I don't know who's right. Should be a good case-study. Outside of the delta in Mississippi, the 2 states are nearly identical.

How many folks do you know that kill more than 6 deer a year? I know a few. But not many. Besides, for folks that have 500+ acres, they can still get on DMAP and have a doe slaughter.

270 - my hangup is this (the naysayers are going to claim I sound like a broken record here)...
What you have or don't have depends on your neighbors under our current regulations. If you have surrounding land with trigger control you are good to go to manage how you see fit. You're going to say the current regs are great and I'm having good deer seasons. I can self manage and shoot as many does as I want, etc. We are seeing bigger deer, blah, blah, blah.
On the flip side... if you have the brown is down "I shoot deer" crowd around... well you may as well get use to it and focus on golf instead of deer habitat during the spring/summer.
I have both depending on location. I would agree nobody needs to kill more than 6 deer a season but my neighbors at one tract would kill 20-25 anyway. That's the way they have been hunting for years and now because we have had a free-for-all for so long... it is how they have been brought up to hunt. They shoot "deer". Period.
Beautiful piece of property and I have been trying but nothing I can do for the deer except pray they stay out the border land and fields even if they are still on my side of the fence.

I think the no does during rifle season on public land is where you will see the most impact of this being effective. What you have or don't have depends on your neighbors under our current regulations.
^^^A lot of truth in that statement.

I'm not a fan of the government telling me what I "need". I just don't think most folks from MS are killing more than 6 now, so they won't be flooding Bama looking for more deer.

I didn't say kill I said hunt. Every hunter I know wants to have the opportunity to shoot when they hunt it's just the nature of the game. When I started hunting in Bama it was illegal to kill a doe even with a bow. Trust me it wasn't a lot of fun.
