Limits per person does nothing to address the balance of the deer population, or lack thereof. I know you and several others on this thread are at least able to give input on bag limits and such.

Our deer herd and deer bag limits can't be fixed by a tag system or a liberal season.

We need biologically sound ZONES in the state. Not 2 or 3. Maybe 20, maybe 50.

Lower AL gets and extended February season to hunt the rut. The deer on our farm, and in my area, rut at the same time the deer in lower AL do. I have never seen a buck chase a doe here before January 30th and I have never seen a fawn here before August 15th and most come a week or so later.

We have a pitifully small deer herd, and need a closed antlerless season for X number of years, but the Jackson county folks who hunt areas where crop fields are hammered or the population is at or near carrying capacity need to be able to kill however many they need to kill.

I'm sure it would be a pain in the rear to sit down as a group of biologists and DCNR decision makers and draw up 45 deer management zones, but if the state ever really wants to balance the deer herd, and has a genuine interest in all hunters being able to hunt at least part of the rut, then that's what it's going to take, IMO.
