RE: Rifle season 2008 is history
You said you wanted to debate deer management and yet you keep going back to off topic venom. Yes they do random aging. Our crew has been approached and had it done. They never measured the rack however. As far as I have seen, the only measuring happens at the PGC records program sessions. Not exactly a scientific sample. And how am I biased when I am reporting what I see. I told here that I didn't see many bucks older than 1.5 this year, but that I did see a large number of 1.5 deer. If I was being biased I would have claimed to have seen a ton of big bucks, which I didn't, except for sightings around the houses when not hunting, or crossing roads at night. I just couldn't locate them when actually hunting. I knowa few exist. If I didn't, I wouldn't bother hunting in that area. They were too smart for me this year, which is fine, I can live with that. That is the game we play. I saw one spike at home and a half spike at camp 2f.
