I don't like antler restrictions. This implies that we are only out hunting for the sake of a big rack of horns.

The fact remains that I, for one, hunt for the meat it provides. Besides, we have areas out here that inbreeding or whatever have caused deformities in racks. 5 and 6 year old bucks sporting 12" and less 6 pt head gear, spikes and off balanced racks.

The size of the rack is nothing more than "Trophy" status and there should be more to killing these animals than that.

So, make that 1 vote in opposition.
