 I copied this from another sight but thought it was interesting  

I know QDM is not all about antlers, but found the recent data interesting. It's amazing to see how many more B&C animals are being taken across the country than just 20 years ago. In Wisconsin, during the periods 2005-2010, many hunters barked at the DNR's Earn-A-Buck plan. It required a hunter in many of the states management units to shoot an antlerless deer before they could tag a buck. That rule saved a tremendous amount of young bucks from being shot. Earn-A-Buck is now gone with recent legislation and many hunters are happy about it. I thought the program did a great job of increasing age structure of bucks and kept populations in check for the most part. I think it certainly played a part in Wisconsin producing a large number of Boone and Crockett whitetails.
