Maybe we need to be more sensitive to their situation. Here they are clinging desperately to antiquated ideas while the rest of the world moves on
Actually it is you and the PGC that is clinging to antiquated ideas . The new and improved deer management as promoted by the QDMA supports sustainable deer densities that will yield a harvest of 29 doe PSM. The best managed WMU in PA ,where the PA plan has been the most effective,is producing a harvest of less than 2 doe PSM.
So ,it appears that SS,Cornelius and I are spearheading the QDM movement in PA,while you are desperately clinging to the antiquated deer management promoted by the PGC.
That statement is completely ridiculous.
Could you please provide a link or a reference to anything indicating where and when QDMA recommended or published support for a
sustained doe harvest of 29 doe PSM. A sustained doe harvest of 29 per square mile would require a pre season deer density somewherearound 90-100 when other incidental mortalities are considered
