I’d extend the buck season until whenever bucks start dropping racks
Ironic. That’s what we are doing now. Imagine that.
And I believe that results in much greater vulnerability for top end bucks. I know in Idaho's Clearwater region, extending the season to include the "2nd" rut greatly reduced the age structure of the buck population. I believe it has the same effect here.
We are just getting into our second rut and we are already down to 25% of our bucks we started season with.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!
