I am in support 100% in zone where populations are healthy enough to support it. Wish it included archery. I will definitely be in the woods for a chance at a velvet buck. This document says that the population survey will be used to determine which zones qualify. Hope it passes!

My first thought is that antler velvet is expensive and a highly desirable component in Chinese medicine. I’m willing to bet opening a velvet season here is going to do for the state what marijuana farms have to some extent.

Another thing i was considering: this will hurt the buck age spectrum as people will shoot small bucks just because they're in velvet. This will spare some bucks during the rut if those hunters take one velvet and one during archery or regular muzzleloader. Catch .22.
