They don't shoot at deer with antlers until after bagging a doe. The Web site
I read did say that you would get a pass if you killed a buck with small
antlers that are hard to see. This is no different from killing only deer with
antlers in areas where DNR is trying to build up the population.
It's as easy to kill a deer with a razor-winged hunting arrow as to kill one
with a shotgun slug. What makes bow hunting a more-challenging sport is that
you have to sneak up very close to get an accurate shot. This sneaking up
close is the reason that bow hunters are allowed in places where shotgun
hunters are not.
How do they keep from impaling
children and old people in an urban hunting zone?
Same way they keep from shooting people, farm animals, and pets when they hunt
in rural hunting zones: don't pull the trigger/release the arrow until you are
SURE you know what's behind what you are shooting at.
Hunters recruited for Warsaw's "deer reduction" hunt, in which a token number of deer are taken, undergo quite a lot of extra training, and hunt under extra rules.
