Antler Restriction/ Recruitments?

Thats what I am getting at, if you want to take some pressure off of the M Deer and the BlackTails fall under the same species in the Regs then why should we look at them like a sub species?
You shoot a Black Tail, your done. That would take the pressure off of some of the hot zones. I am sure I just made a Whole bunch of friends on the coast but it all about choices, if you
want a interior M Deer, then focus on that for the season. A little give goes along way.

I am a avid bowhunter and I was asked in a past thread how I felt about loosing the Late Mule Deer Bow Season in my back yard, my reply was "if it will help the M Deer then I am all for it"
Thats how we have to start thinking if we want to see change...

Dude.... I will take a BT over a mule any day Also, the islands will still have a generous season I’d think, so... three for me still ?

you should only be able to hunt deer in the MU you live in.....did I mention I have a place in area 3........but its not all about me.....really its not

For me that’s fine. Have you looked at the bag limits for reg 1 ? :0

Thats good news, there is one place in BC holding its own. Thanks for the info.
Happy trails and good luck this coming season.

Besides the point. Not one should go to a non resident.

Why?
Mule deer are one of our most plentiful species.
Why wouldn't we sell mule deer hunts to non residents?

Zero trickery.
I can't see any good reason not to sell mule deer hunts to non residents.

You sure took to the anti GO non resident koolaid

First off... no mule deer to any non resident also. Period. ( yes that goes for all outfitters)

They aren't allocated species. The 70 a year taken in the entirety of BC by NR hunters isn't worth bothering about, especially since they are unallocated. One cougar family will kill 70 deer a year.

Focus of time, money, and effort should be on big picture habitat issues to grow 70,000 or 700,000 more deer, not on who shoots 70 deer.

Because the MD are in decline ? So they say.

I’ve always been that way. I believe residents come first. If animals are declining in numbers such as moose, I think only residents should get them.
