Seems like you should be all over their "giving" you more rights by allowing you the option of killing a deer with a firearm on Oct 15 instead of making you wait until the Saturday before Thanksgiving to kill a deer with a firearm. There is no difference to the deer - it's dead. Why, as long as you follow the rules pertaining to limits set by the state, does it matter how you kill them or when you kill them? Heck, I think you should be able to kill all 3 bucks in one day and just be done with it and start getting ready for turkey season.

We are getting six EXTRA weeks where we can enjoy deer hunting without them being pressured by gun shots. In my humble opinion its like...a bonus plan!


Surely you know it ain't the gun shots pressuring the deer, but rather the folks behind the trigger and what they are doing in the woods that is pressuring the deer.
