The 3-buck limit is going on 20 years, getting close to it. All those who wanted it for (wink*wink*) "herd health" -- in reality, they wanted big bucks -- haven't seen that play out like they thought. We don't have any more 130s and 140s and bigger running around the state than we did in the late 2000s when the limit got forced through.

But yeah, let's reduce it to two or one and that way we'll have better bucks and structure for everyone. Pfftttt.


Hunting used to be fun.


Shouldn't we have 80, 11 million extra bucks running around by now since Alabama went from 117 bucks a year to 3 bucks a year 20 years ago? Where did they all go? Or does the limit not really impact the herd just the hunters?
