I'm glad it has been withdrawn. I hunt with all 3 weapons and seasons. To me, it didn't make sense that a bonus buck may not be legal to take due to antler restrictions, and would have to be passed on, then would be legal to take with a firearm as an antlerless when it has shed. If that is the case, remove the point of restrictions in early season. I know that a shed buck is legal now in January with a bow or late gun, but the late firearm is 3 days, not 31.
My two cents would be all Sunday's open, expand early muzzleloader to 5-7 days, and allow bonus stamp to be used during the early season while keeping the two doe harvest in place. Then expand firearms to open the week in December between when it closes now, and muzzleloader reopens.
