MDNR Deer Harvest Reports from the Southern Lower Peninsula (2007-2010) which indicated that …
64% of the antlered deer harvested was comprised of 1.5 year old bucks
75% of all 1.5 year old bucks killed , had 6 or fewer total points (avg. 3/side)
40% of all 1.5 year old bucks killed, had 4 or less total points (avg. 2/side)
I still support only one deer kill per hunter per year with antler point restrictions until such a time as the herd becomes “balanced.”
