That said, it is the current law and should be adhered to and enforced, but that’s not saying that it’s not a stupid regulation that should be revised or changed.

That guy from Florida that capped two in one afternoon on his last day before going back home may have never shot that second one otherwise……A lot of this is happening during a short time period during the rut when there is much more opportunity to shoot multiple bucks....A one buck per day rule makes sense when buck populations are already struggling


I’d imagine if adhered to the one buck a day helps protect younger age class bucks as well
