Really 80% could be lost as 20% harvest 80% of the deer but themoney lost would be too much.
10-15% is probably what could be afforded.
Thank youfor being just about the only one to answer the question squarely. I wish that more people would give their imput on this important question rather than hijack it.
If 15% is an accurate guess, IMHO we will probably be there this coming year or next.
BTW, the US F&W Service just released the 2005 national sales figures. When Pa. lost
5.9% of its hunters, the rest of the country lost only
1.4%.
