It is well to try and journey ones road and to fight with the air.Man must die! At worst he can die a little sooner." (H Ryder Haggard)
How many guys actually shoot more than one MD a year? That being said, until road access is cut down a bit, I would say cut the any buck season to maybe 2-3 weeks, I don't think taking it out completely is a good idea..
There are some significant changes on the horizon.
"2018 B.C. Budget Consultation: "Committee Members support dedicated funding for fish and wildlife conservation and management, and a science and ecosystem-based approach to conservation and management."
Wildlife managers can't make changes to regulations without the most recent inventories supporting their proposals.
In the last flight counts for mule deer in Region 8 there were mixed results. Some MU's (or portion of MU's) were below the target minimum of 20 bucks per 100 does.....while some were well above the minimums...even in high pressure MU's like 8-11. The MU with the lowest deer numbers and low buck:doe ratios hasn't seen a significant burn for decades.......at least until this year.
But one of the most important pieces of info that came from the most recent flights was that the fawn to doe ratios were consistently in the 65-68:100 range going into winter(considered healthy). This shows that sperm supply isn't a factor.
The MU's that were low are on the radar for potential changes. Hopefully, the dedicated funding will increase the frequency of inventory flights so they can adjust seasons in a timely fashion...if required.

1 MD a year is still more then i have managed to shoot lol joys of a new hunter, but seriously 1 MD a year and no point restrictions would benefit us all in the long run.
