The biggest stat is this IMO

PA uese to Shoot 20% 2.5 year old bucks or older.
Now it's over 50%. As Nodog pointed out the total harvest numbers has dropped.

The goal was to balance theage of bucks and reduce the herd.

[align=left]2001 – antlerless harvest – 301,379
antlered harvest – 203,221
20% of antlered bucks were 2.5 years or older[/align]

[align=left]2002 – antlerless harvest – 352,113
antlered harvest – 165,416[/align]

[align=left]2003 – antlerless harvest – 322,620
antlered harvest – 142,270[/align]

[align=left]2004 – antlerless harvest – 284,910
antlered harvest – 124,410[/align]

[align=left]2005 – antlerless harvest – 233,890
antlered harvest – 120,500
50% of antlered bucks were 2.5 years or older[/align][align=left][/align][align=left]I would like to see 2006 and 2007 numbers. I bet the antlered harvest is going to be higher[/align]
