Option #2
1. Will increase the health of the deer herd. More bucks than we have now will mean more mature deer will be doing the breeding, leading to a healthier herd, and a better hunt.
2. Fewer hunters will be hunting with Option 2. I love hunting when there are fewer people around, rather than more. I don't need to have a tag every year.
3. My family will enjoy the hunt more when we see more bucks and fewer hunters. Only one of us needs a tag and we all can go.
4. What has been said is that they are pushing for 18:100 ratios, this is partially true. If you read through it and have listening at the RACs, the proposal is actually for 18-25:100 ratio, which in my mind is great. The higher the better.
How many tags would be available statewide under 25:100? Less than there is now. I love hunting with fewer people around.
Any idea what the odds of drawing a tag would be under that scenario? I have an idea. I wouldn't be able to get a tag every year. Fine. If you think you need a tag every year, you're selfish.
5. Increasing the buck/doe ratio is going to mean more bucks seen during the hunt. Fun stuff.
Additional consideration needed: It doesn't focus on habitat which should be one of our concerns, along with predator control (eradication would be better).
