If the state would start protecting the younger bucks the way they used to protect does is just what we need.

Just think if they did these restrictions statewide.... that's what will bring it all full circle. People would moan and cry and pout for about the first 5 years but after that you would not hear another word about it. The same guys that made such a big moan over the OBR would be right there again. I wonder how many of those guys are still moaning about OBR.... Mass chaos, cats living with dogs Hey, if more people want antler or other restrictions on the deer they hunt, go for it. I'm just not one that invites others restrictions on me.

I get it, I've just always thought about hunters that dont have the good areas or advantages we have. You know, people other than myself.

Exactly why I will never back a shorter season that restricts others in the sport.^^^

I want restrictions on the deer other fellas hunt. I already restrict myself. This is not directed at you,I read other posts very simmeler. Does any one ever consider the other guy any more. Why is it I want,I want,I want, to heck with the other guy. When I was young hunting was NOT a sport. It was NOT for fun. It WAS a cheap way to put meat on the table. I still do not like the one buck rule. Bucks were bigger ie more meat. Every one complained about the recognition indiana is getting from all the big deer killed lately and how it is drawing non-residents here to hunt and now you want antler restrictions to make bigger deer. Oh we should raise non resident license to 500$ so it inhibits the poor out of state guys from coming here to hunt. That way only the rich guy can come. I think you should out law hunting leases. Not really but my point is I have lost good hunting ground because I am a poor resident and can not afford to pay a lease. Oh ya. Out law food plots to. They draw all the deer from my place to yours and give you an advantage while screwing me and my land lord will not let me plant them even if I could afford it. Do I accully believe most of the stuff I printed. Yes and no. I do not like leasing or food plots for reasons mentioned but believe if you can afford it you should have the opportunity to do so. What I am trying to show is just how ridiculous your obr/ antler restrictions and other wants would restrict people you do not know just like my ideas would restrict people I do not know. Only difference is I do not think my ideas should be implemented be cause it would restrict some ones from their hunting enjoyment where as it seams you do not give a (fill in the blank) how it effects me or my enjoyment. These are my opinions Onebentarrow

I think Indiana needs a Deer Sales Tax (DST). All proceeds go the the IDNR. The funds used so every deer can be color tagged to show what year it was born. Similar to marking queens. Each color represents a year from 0-9 years old. Tag each ear and the tail. Then set what color tags is allowed to be killed. On some tags put a prize on it like a free gun, bow etc. Everyone would be so excited to be one of the lucky tagged deer hunter. They get so excited they forget about DST.

But like I said before after about 5 years of new regs and the difference in the age structure and buck to doe ratios were noticed. All this hoopla would be long forgotten.
