I got a local job in 2013 and started deer hunting again. As I recall, in 2000 you could kill 1 deer a day legally. When I started again in 2013, the limit went from over 100 deer a year, to 8. 3 bucks and 5 does. WTH happened?

Where are you limited to 5 does?


Well that's what my harvest record/license has on it. I never looked into if there was a way I could kill more than 5 does, because I'm not gonna kill more than 5 does. I don't have enough freezer space to stockpile deer meat. Maybe someday I will get a bigger freezer.

But that was a small and insignificant part of my overall point. My point was that in 2000 there was almost no limit(Who kills, stores and eats more than 100 deer a year?), and in 2013 there is a MUCH smaller limit. I see nothing wrong with a limit, but I know what happens when government starts nosing around, imposing new regulations. There's a good chance it will never stop until they ruin it for everyone. That's all I was saying.

BTW, how many doe slots does your harvest record have? Maybe I've got a defective harvest record.
