    Here’s an interesting tidbit of information from the Pierce County Herald newspaper.

    “On April 22, the Natural Resources Board–made up of seven citizens appointed by the governor and has the responsibility for setting DNR policy–voted to suspend Earn-A-Buck indefinitely, except in chronic wasting disease (CWD) zones. The board also announced the creation of a Special Study Committee to research alternative herd management methods. The findings of this committee is due back to the board by next spring.”

    I was actually looking forward to wacking an early season doe!

    With my out of state archery license can I still shoot a doe & buck or is it only one?

    Lip,
    From what I’ve heard they’re still going to have the extra doe tags. You just won’t have to shoot a doe first to get your buck.

    Now if old mossy horns walks by on opening day you can lay the hammer down and still fill the freezer with some sweet doe backstraps!

    OK – I guess I won’t be needing those 2 earn a buck stickers I got last year.

    I hope land owners realize the importance of managing the deer herd and the buck to doe ratio. We as hunters, must all do our part.
