[QUOTE="okievarmint, post: 1684850, member: 6719"] Never said you couldn't hunt them. I'm saying for improved quality, and quantity of the hunt, let a buck walk every third year. Instead of 'old deer' you would have more 'big old deer'. We as hunters need to be concerned with more than just 'The kill'. I believe in the hunters of Oklahoma. I believe there are enough of those in the Hunting Community, that are not short-sighted and selfish, that know people depend on their dollar, and they would continue to hunt and spend money there. Southeastern Oklahoma would still be crowded every deer season, even if it were a doe only year. For those that would choose to not participate, there are many more waiting to fill his spot. Many hunters do not hunt just because they cannot find a place to hunt. I wish I could let more people hunt my place. Everyone that hunts my place come every year. Why? They are participating in 'Management', and don't whine about [I]not[/I] killing a buck. The memory and re-telling of the thrill of watching a monster buck on a food plot, chasing a doe, working a scrape, or slinking through and not killing him, has become almost as big a deal here as a 'kill'. They are letting smaller bucks walk on 'off years', because they know there are bigger and better. There has not been a tag go unfilled on my place in 10 years or more, other than me. I did not even carry a gun this year, I hunted with my granddaughter. Don't focus on not killing a buck every third year, but killing a better buck the other two. [/QUOTE]
