The only real failure of the PGC with deer is them not growng a spine early enough to head off this situation we have now. Had the PGC managed the numbers based on better science years ago, we would probably be better off especially in the traditional deer woods.
That is pure nonsense. i posted the data that shows 2G was at it's deer density goal in 1999. the statewide herd was close to the deer density goal in the early 80's and the increase in the herd since then was due to the increase in the southern tier counties ,rather than in the NC counties. you simply have no idea what you are talking about.
