This combined with a tighter doe limit (zone dependent) would completely change improve AL hunting.


So you couldn't kill a "big 6" that everyone wants? And spread ain't nothing but air, air is everywhere.



What about that 6.5 yr old 20” spike?

We will never have what the upper Midwest has. Those trips to WI took the wind right out of my QDM big dreams back home. Look and smelling that soils as all harvest a needed.

It’s like this. I rarely and I mean rarely saw a 1.5 yr old or 2.5 yr old that wasn’t an 8 point. Saw only (1) 1.5 yr old spike in several years. As told they were very rare. We weren’t even in the best part for deer in WI either. Didn’t see crappy racks traveling thru Missouri and Illinois.

Opposite experience here. Rare to see the racked 1.5 yr old and see way more 4-6 pt 2.5 yr olds than 8 or more 2.5 yr olds.

Not saying Alabama is like that everywhere because there are pockets of great deer. Also by getting the deer ratio and carrying capacity in check will definitely help. But no amount of regulations will make us like the Midwest.
