I have said Many Many times... For bowhunters our shooter buck population in VC is still good. I have never said i saw a significant decrease in our bucks.
Which makes absolute sense imo. we didn't increase the buck limit from 1 to 3... I would not go as far as to say "There's Booners in every square mile and 140"'s in every hollow" though.
Oh and BTW... Everything in VC is shot on "public land" ask anyone a question about where they hunt, or where they killed it, and the answer you will get 9 times out of 10 is "Tar hollow" or "public land".. That is unless you are a local and know them well.
