Rokslide member @bohntr sent me this press release from earlier this year. He's with P&Y and was instrumental in implementing this change.

Velvet will now be treated the same as Hard-Antlered when it comes to listing.

Many bowhunts occur during velvet season but hunters had to strip to stay on all-time list, something many weren't willing to do.

This move could keep P&Y more relevant to more hunters.

Many hunters will be happy about this, but some will not.

Where do you land on the issue?

Here's the official press release:
