LAST EDITED ON Oct-10-17 AT 09:26AM (MST)[p][The book cliffs is like all but the two premium units. Actually better tham nearly every other unit on any given year. It's being managed exactly like the UDWR believes the majority of us Utah sportsmen want in a deer unit. When you manage for maximum recreation opportunity, they believe buck deer should be killed long before they reach their natural antler potental...... for many different reasons.
As along as most of us want to hunt that kind of unit, that is what the agency will manage for. When the majority want something different, the agency will change it's recreational hunting strategy.
The strategy is a based on how sportsmen answer UDWR surveys. As a group, State sportsmen.......... the book cliffs, as it is today, is very nearly exactly when we told them we want.
Imagine that......
