If people would use common sense we wouldn’t need to have this discussion. Some people believe that a doe a day available means that they need to kill a damn doe a day. By god. Just is what it is. I think we should reduce the turkey bag limits from 5 to 3. And go!

Do you need more than two? Bucks? Perhaps. I might need to kill 10. Or four. Or just one. Same with does. Same with anything - turkeys, squirrels, whatever. Any other hunter telling me or anyone else that "You don't need more than ..." can smooch my behiney. Whatever is biologically sound or biologically detrimental is what I go on, not what someone else tells me I need.

I'd be fine with only 2-3 weeks of gun season AND outlawing bait and those stupid crossbows I don't have a dog in this fight...but you read my mind. Me three.

I would like to see an actual Muzzleloader season worked in there somewhere. Instead of just a pretend one where everyone is at work.
The only comment I have about season length is this:
We have created an environment where everyone in this State rides the tree every weekend and that has been at the expense of other outdoor activities such as small game hunting IMO. I think the reality is that we have brought up a whole generation of hunters... whos vision of hunting is nothing other than riding the shooting house over a food plot every weekend. Something about that IMO is not desirable and over time I believe more hunters will give up the sport. They just think "hunting" = Deer Hunting = Sitting over Food Plot = I got bored and blasted a doe = I'm tired of this after 30 years and I have more responsibility so I'm taking up golf.
I think this is why Turkey Hunting is exploding in popularity. This generation of high school and college age young adults finds that hunting can actually be a lot more fun than sitting in a box blind playing on their phone.
No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.

i'm not gonna tell anyone else what weapon they should hunt with and I think its irrelevant IF the season is based on the deer herd and proper harvest management. w/ that said it personally SUX hunting the rut at the end of a 3 month season but i understand alabama's not a trophy state. the deer hunting shows on outdoor channel aren't filming in alabama. it's a meat state w/ a long rifle season and that's how most want it.. if i was dictator i'd close the season most of December.

It seems like the consensus of the majority of folks is that gun season is too long......I'm not saying everyone feels that way but from reading comments I would say there's a heft majority that do.....
If we were going to shorten gun season next year (let's assume that you will still be able to bow hunt these days)......How short of a gun season would you be ok going to?.........Two weeks?........A month?........????? Oh I've thought about this my whole life!!! Bow season still comes in October 15th. Muzzleloader starting December 15th through Christmas day. Rifle season starts Dec 26th and runs through Jan 31. February 10 for select counties with later rut (no reason for the whole dang state to do so), BUT bow season starts Nov 1 in these counties (we gon' see just how bad y'all wanna hunt "the rut") My MAIN point is it's ridiculous to GUN hunt nearly 3 months.

I don’t see a problem with the current dates are fine. Go to a tag system and show a little restraint on the trigger and all will be fine. Self control will help Alabama a whole lot. This.
