Limit Buck Kill to one per Hunter per year, end all special seasons and begin hunting with Archery October 1st, and change Gun Season to 3 day hunt starting on First Friday in December annually

The Issue

To put an end, once and for all, to the gross mismanagement of the Deer Herd in the name of Revenues. Too many immature bucks and too many Does are harvested annually because of overzealous resource commissioners making laws with revenues in the forefront, manipulation of herd numbers to reach financial goals, and to pander to the Insurance Lobby. The creation of Youth Seasons, no age-limit hunting, Liberal crossbow rules and endless Doe Tags are the catalysts to the issue. Michigan has the tools and raw materials to create a Mature Buck Paradise while increasing Hunter satisfaction without emptying Hunters freezers. If you care about Deer Hunting in Michigan, you should support these changes
