Default RE: Crossbows introduced for regular archery season in PA

In 2007 the PGC said 24% of the fawns harvested were BB. but in previous years the PGC stated that the fawn harvest was equally split between males and females. So were the hunters in 2007 targeting BB, or is the 24% harvest rate just an anomaly?
You are correct . I misspoke and I should have said 24% of the antlerless harvest was BB. But it still doesn't change the fact that in a stable herd,saving BB by not shooting fawns is a major mistake.
