A hint of why that is could be found on a public land map of each unit.
Are you saying like because there is more public land in 2G and that they issue more tags in WMUs that are not for public hunting to get the private land owners to kill off the deer on their properrty ? Like in the south west and south east. Alot of private property there and tons of tags given out.
I think they sell more tags in privateland because the habitat is broken and contains richer soils ie:nutrition, so there are not only more deer there, they have higher breeding rates, lower mortality, lower predation and more cover in the form of safety zones. It simply takes more tags to get the job done.
