Am I behind or did anyone else see where the CAB is bumping the opener to the 3rd Saturday of March instead of the 15th? Gives the weekend warrior a “fair chance”. Takes days afield away is all it’s gonna do. Season won’t open as early as the 15th again till 2025.

This was at the bottom of the Tuscaloosa News article about Spear hunting for deer being removed from the regs. I think the article is posted in the Serious deer forum.

There was a long discussion in the General forum about it soon after the CAB meeting. A female member made that motion, and she also made a motion to reduce the limit. She resigned soon after the meeting. It certainly looked like she was working for someone else. The limit reduction failed, but they will get it through eventually. It was said at the meeting that they should go ahead and reduce it now since the Auburn study was going to recommend it. That sort of confirmed what a lot of us suspected when that study was started - that it's primary purpose was to provide a "scientific" reason to reduce the limit and shorten the season.

Our director has wanted to do both for a long time. I have argued for years that our dcnr should be telling other states how successful our system of turkey management has been for the past 65 years, but he wants us to just be like every other state. I suspect he will eventually get his wish.


All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

There are some things I will allow the guvment to control.
My turkey hunting ain't one of them.

This a quote from a cab member from the Tuscaloosa news article.....

“It’s a day that just about everybody has off,” Harders said. “If it comes in on a Thursday and you’re in a hunting club where you’re the only person who can get off on Thursday, it gives you a big advantage over everybody else.”

This just chaps my arse. They took hunting days away from us for NO BIOLOGICAL reason. If Mr. Harders is reading this I just want you to know how stupid your logic is for taking turkey hunting days away from us that we will never get back. Y’all just ignore those shotgun blasts you're gonna hear on March 15th.

The third Saturday in March 2019 is the 16th. Atleast it’s only 1 day lost. Looks like the following few years will cost us more days tho.

There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world:

1. All Politicians Are Liars
2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement
3. Taxation Is Theft

I'm for it. That means fewer hunters in the woods on my opening day.
