What would be the pro's and con's of doing the following?:
Turn turn area X into an LE area. Area X has a good number of deer, but has fallen below the desired over-all herd potential and buck-to-doe ratio.
In this LE area, Give out two types of tags. 3 point or smaller tags, and 4 point or better tags.
PRO: you could issue more 4 point or better tags and less smaller deer tags, but still issue the same amount of tags.
CON: people shooting before they can clearly identify the size of the animal and leaving "bad-harvested" bucks that weren't big enough or that weren't inside the specified peramators.
Do you think that this would help an area? it would still give those that wanted a chance to hunt a chance, with out making it a trophy area.
