Philluk 181 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 What are your views on the open seasons for deer, too short too long?. I only ask as fallow bucks have been in nearly a month now and ive not gone at all, ive got the land and the deer but to me until its gets cooler i dont see an urgency, and each year i finish on the doe's before the date.

rugerguy 2 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Seasons do seem a bit long for the fallow bucks in my opinion. I also think it would be better changing the roe buck season until after the rut and also the red stags. Quote Link to post
sussex 5,776 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Like to see the doe season finish at the end of Feb ..I always aim to finish by then anyway , I've never really liked shooting heavily pregnant doe's .Got no problem shooting the cull bucks for nine months of the year .. 2 Quote Link to post
rugerguy 2 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Where I stalk in Scotland we have to take any stag or buck on sight any time of year. It still does not seem to bother the numbers, they still keep growing. Quote Link to post
sussexsteve 8 Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 I too won't shoot does after the end of February. Don't see why bucks can't be shot all year though. Quote Link to post
