I would disagree with this part of your post I have seen many many old mature rams broomed sub legal. Even have one broomed to 3/4 on a trail cam pic on my computer. The majority of full curl I have seen have been with lamb tips. I agree take old rams but full curl doesn't achieve this objective. I took a 9.5 yr old ram that was barely 4/5's and wasn't broomed, likly would never see full curl but a nice mature ram.
As for the 6 pt elk rule, I bet they have hundreds of big 5 pt now that will never be legal.
I really don't think we have a problem except gov tying to fix something that isn't broken. Full curl won't mean more opportuniy for a big ram it just means more rams will never have a chance of being harvested.
