I actually remember a system such as that which you suggest. When I started hunting, it was one deer a year, buck or doe (If I am remembering this correctly). It was very hard to get a doe tag for some counties. If you bow hunted, you could take a buck or doe but that was it for the year. I don't think anybody wants to go back to the overpopulation that was in the 60's and 70's, but there are truly some areas that need to come back a little. I hunt WV every year and I was amazed at how far away from a farm you will kill deer with corn in it's stomach. Red Tag areas are a waste of time trying to shoot deer during the day. A deer will go a long way at night to feed. On the other hand, there has been much monkey business when claiming crop damage too. Not rumor, I have seen it for myself. I guess it all comes down to not enough personnel in the PAGC to manage the deer in every corner of the state.
