Your question, in that context makes no sense. One cant assume that junior hunters are the only new hunters nor can you compare just those two numbers to ask your question.
Just because you can't comprehend it ,doesn't mean it doesn't make sense. If the number of junior hunters equals or exceeds the total number of hunters lost during the perior, then any new additional adult hunters would offset the loss even more.
You want to argue about the decline in license sales ,but you don't even know how to access the PA license sales data. Now that's hoot!!!
