Bill now proposed to extend
deer season thru Feb 15 so that hunters
in the southern half of the State can
hunt the full rut.

I said it the other day: CHANGE IS COMING!!

So to all the *ssholes in the north(ern half)
[of the State] that have been working to
deprive us Southerners of our God Given sacred
natural right (and State's Right at that) to hunt the
full rut, take that and shove it where the
sun don't shine!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dam commies.

Don't get excited yet. That proposal has been kicked around for a couple of decades. But it is heating up again as it always does between Feb one and April fifteen.

Where will the line be drawn dickhead? I live an hour north of Birmingham and had a buck chasing a doe through the field in front of my house last Tuesday.

I've heard the bill has a decent chance of passing with an addendum, anyone not living in the south zone will be required to purchase a non resident license to hunt in the south zone.

It's gonna be a real pisser next year when they start rutting February 16.

I'm not against extending the season but anyone that lives in this state having to purchase another license is bullchit

All joking aside...I think it has a good chance to pass.

I heard that there was going to be an addendum that only allowed WmHunter to shoot does in February!

okay, yall have got the season extended. woohoo.

now lets hear some of the excuses as to why from feb 1 thru feb 15 why still the big buck has not been taken. lets hear some cause its gonna be some excuse . sure is not because we did not have enough days to hunt. my lord the deer are worn out by jan 31 much less the hunters i know.

Not on my property. If it does pass I'll hunt a lot less in December and the first half of January and wait for the rut to start to hunt a lot.

I hope you will post the fetal aging studies to prove your theory.

I think this ones gonna get interesting. I grew up in central alabama but live in north alabama now. I bowhunt up here and hunt the rut up here til new yrs. Then i go back south and hunt the rut in January. This could be a Bitch!!!

So if we follow this logic, I guess we'll see Florida keep deer season open through March.

while they passing out more hunting days, lets ask for season to start 15AUG like SC we may even get em to make it all yr long like feral swine. got more hogs in bama now than ever before, maybe we need to kill more deer too. dont think so

Good maybe then we can keep these yankees from driving our lease prices up.

you mean April, they have a primitive weapons season after gun season goes out in mid Feb

I don't care to do a study - all I wil have to do is come back on here after the season is over to see the push for an even further extended season.

I do find it ironic that so many pushed for a 3-buck limit because too many bucks were being killed, yet want to extend the season so more bucks can be killed. I am sure that there are some that are for one or the other, but I imagine there are some that support both as well.

Who is joking?
Have you not heard about the state's revenue shortfall?
You can bet the farm, it will generate revenue, or it won't pass.

What is the dividing line for north and south zones?
