Send your comments. I think most feedback he got from the East is that they wanted more days in the 2nd split.

I don't like Youth hunt in the split. I like the ducks to get a break. Lord knows they need it with all the pressure we put on them. I wish they would keep it before or do it after.

Most people I know with leases in the east zone tend to do much better in the second split. I guess that's why they are making a change.

The youth hunt will only be 2 days out of the whole split. I don't think that will harm much. And that will just make opening day even better cause you will be the first to hunt.

I do just about as good in the second split as the first split in the east zone...sometimes better in one than the other I'd just rather a longer first splin cause of the fact come the final 2 weeks of season I'm normally wore down good and bout ready to hang it up for the season even though 2 weeks after that I'll be ready again...but hey can't have it my way cause this ain't BK....

Yeh u are in the marsh. Ducks are always there. All my friends that have leases in the east are either in rice fields or swamps/flooded timber.

It shouldn't harm too much. I just like them to get a break because of all the pressure. I would be for two splits, but that wasn't an option this year.

On the flip side, maybe it will get more kids out because I know some people would not participate because they wanted to be the first to shoot them. The kids may not get carried away by mosquitos either. I still would like it after the season like Mississippi. You talk about see some ducks!

I think that would be an awesome idea.
