I believe its ignorant to believe every studie or just because a biologist conducts a test that it becomes fact.
I'm not putting down your methods. You'r ehonest about what makes you choose the path you;re taking. I commend that.
I'll just quote something Dukemichaels said here a while back.....(which makes me believe what I hear the "experts" say.....or lend them MORE credence):
“You know what I love... people who actually believe they know more than the men and women who spend there entire lives studying whitetail."
