HoosierDaddy28 Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 How do the other Hoosier hunters feel about the one buck rule? The group I hunted with this year killed 6 bucks. Two small, two pretty decent and one possible booner. It seems to be like the quality of bucks has risen the last few years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IN_hunter Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Re: Indiana OBR I have noticed a tremendous difference. Hunters now have to be picky about the buck they shoot. Where as before they could shoot a little one if they wanted then worry about getting a big one. Now the majority of them wait for the big ones and let the small ones pass.

lil hunter Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Re: Indiana OBR Yeah. Theres a nice ong summary on the DNR website about it. There does seem to be quite a few more nice deer the past few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colts1888 Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Re: Indiana OBR Dont really have an opinion on it myself. Where I hunt, i honestly can say i have seen no improvement in deer size. If anything i see more small dink bucks now then i used to. I never shot 2 bucks a year to begin with so it's not affecting me too much. I dont think the OBR is stopping people from shooting 2 bucks though if they set there mind to doing that. All there doing is having there wife/son/brother/etc. buy a tag and filling that one after they fill there own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Re: Indiana OBR It's always been one buck only in Ohio. I can tell you from my perspective, that if you're a trophy hunter, you really get selective about what type of buck you'll shoot knowing that you only get one.
