    IMO...  The amount of rifle tags is unsustainable.  Every time I read about a rifle coues hunt it's I shot my deer at 550, 605, 680.  Ray Charles could sneak within that type of range.  Too many deer are being shot, many of them shooting any buck with horns, and the large bucks take a beating as they are fewer in number anyways. Technology has improved to the point that even so-so marksmen are slinging lead at that range. This is not meant to be a bashing of rifle hunters... it's just numbers of deer hitting the ground, Especially with a few units issuing tags in the thousands, and most in the 600-800 range.

    People bitched about the OTC bow hunt are killing all the deer.  It's been limited now, and rarely do many units get near reaching the quota for coues.  Most Southern coues units there are only a handful of bucks killed...  Mule deer are another story...

     

     I definitely see less mature bucks during the rut, it's been steadily decreasing for years.  Sure, someone kills a slug every now and then... but proportionally the number of large bucks seem to be getting less...

    809 last one. 
     

    i don’t think many people ever expected archery coues quotas to get hit

    Eh….   With the list of extras over stock price, I guess I thought it seemed like a fair deal.   I guess a car salesman would know better though, so I’ll take your mute word for it.  😂

    Yes I would. Maybe you didn’t see it said salvaged.

    Love my 2015 with close to twice the mileage.   Sounds like a real fair price.  Somebody aught to snap that thing up!

    S.

    Asking full retail value on a truck with a salvage title is a fair deal to you? Why don’t I ever get  customers like you in real life.

    This time last year they were catching those huge totoabas off the pier. They were using relatively small swimbaits. I’d throw like a 5500 size spinning reel with a pretty long rod with 40lb braid and and 20lb-40lb leader, 1-2oz lead head with a swim bait. Catch a nice sardinera or a totoaba 

     

    also guys are hammering the big corvina off pelican point area

    So, anyone who can’t shoot a bow anymore should just have to give up the September hunts?  
     

    Correct. if you can’t shoot a bow, don’t apply for bow hunts. Nobody is entitled to rut hunts
