Default RE: Pa doe tags 2005 vs 2006

Actually, can someone find or post the Anterless harvests of, say, 5 years prior to the AR's, up to the current last year harvests? Also a breakdown of those taken by archery, muzzleloader, and rifle? I may completely wrong in my above statement as a whole for pa (it certainly stands for my local area). Maybe the antlerless harvests haven't increased as drastically as I may think (again they have in my local area, I'm just not sure statewide), but I do know bowhunters and muzzleloader hunters generally don't contribute to the majority of the antlerless harvest (for example, in the 2000-2001 year, there was a anterless harvest of 301,379. Of that, bowhunters contributed to 40,069 anterless, and muzzleloader contributed to 29,216). That's a total of 69,285, or roughly 22% of the total antlerless harvest NOT taken by a rifle.
