SylvanLakeWH 32,147 #55 Posted 3 hours ago Not so funny thing... I could have taken two more doe on the walk to my car... 1/8 of a mile... but no tags (7 doe allowed this season)... it's ridiculous how many doe there are in SE Michigan and the DNR can't get hunters to shoot them... Hunter's "buck only" mentality has the herd way screwed up... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hunter's "buck only" mentality has the herd way screwed up... I pretty much only shoot doe. Not that I have seen a confirmed legal buck the last three years. It sounds like you guys need to do what Maryland does. They have nearly unlimited buck tags, but you have to turn in a certain number of filled doe tags to get them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SylvanLakeWH 32,147 #57 Posted 1 hour ago Michigan is toying with a bonus buck plan next year. You can get two buck now, and around me, an additional 7 doe. Under the possible new plan, If you shoot a doe, you would also be eligible for a bonus buck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
