Just because the facts of deer management are too far beyond your level of knowledge and comprehension doesn’t mean they aren’t still the correct facts. The most knowledgeable deer management professionals in the world have reviewed and endorsed the direction of Pennsylvania’s deer management program, so just who are you to be telling people they are wrong and you, a totally untrained and unqualified person, knows more then they do?
Based on your past history , it appears that it is you who lacks the knowledge and the ability to understand deer management. To prove my point let's compare our records on the subject.
1. You predicted buck harvests would return to normal after the first year of ARs and I predicted they would continue to decrease until the the PGC stopped reducing the herd and I was right.
2. You predicted ARs would double the number of 2.5+ buck and the number of 8 pts. and I predicted it would never happen and I was right.
3. You predicted breeding rates and recruitment would increase and offset the negative effects of herd reduction. I predicted increased breeding rates wouldn't come close to off setting the negative effects of HR and I was right.
4. You claimed there weren't enough bucks to breed the does in a timely manner resulting in too many late born fawns. I said there were enough bucks to breed the doe before AR and Dr. Rosenberry agreed. Once again I was right.
5. You claimed the high antlerless harvests were not responsible for reducing the herd and I provided proof from the PGC that the antlerless harvests did in fact reduce the herd. I also pointed out how you used 5 year averages to mislead and decieve.
6. You claim the plan has been reviewed and endorse by experts when no such review has occurred. I provided quotes that show the experts do not favor ARS as the best method for improving the age structure. So ,once again ,you were wrong and I was right.
So you can call me anything that floats your boat, but you can't refute the facts that my analysis of the plan was right on target, while your analysis was light years away from being accurate
