Time after time RSB posts well written, professional responses and explanations. No matter if one agrees with all of his content, it has to be acknowledged that he does an exemplary job of keeping his temper in the face of repeated realistic questions, repeat questions, stupid questions and of course unfounded allegations and outright irrational attacks. Even the few times he did digress and react badly, he then very professionally explained himself and noted where he could have done better. Look at his posts and then look at the quote above and other Cornelius quotes and decide for yourself, who's OUT OF THEIR GOURD!!! LOL
RSB intentionally misleads and deceives hunters and manipulates data to support his agenda. He was wrong about the B/D ratios, breeding rates recruitment ,the buck harvest and the reason for late born fawns. It is truly hard to believe that a trained wildlife professional could be so wrong about so many things ,especially after the deer have proven him to be consistently wrong.
Those are just your opinions. I think there are a lot of people that disagree with many of your opinions about a lot of things.

That would be you and a couple people on here, plus all those suckups on HPA. If you and the PGC would start telling the truth, both would get more respect from hunters. Respect is earned, not demanded.
Most of us are at the point, whenever you post, trying to figure out what you have twisted, rather than taking you posts serious. Lately I haven't even looked at your calculations and only read your twisted answers. After that I wait for some on this board, who keep tract of the PGC statistics, to explain what your numbers really mean and how you distorted them.
No one is demanding or even asking for respect.
All I am interested in trying to educate the people that read these boards who have enough commonsense to be able to accept the facts as I see them in an effort to have a better future for our resources.
I have spend over thirty years seeing and experience the damage not educating enough people about the real goals and objectives of scientific wildlife management has caused. We have areas that support very few deer as a result of a failure to educate hunters about the affects of nature when they don’t harvest enough deer and I will do all I can to stop that decline in habitat and deer numbers from expanding to even more areas.
I don’t care if anyone respects that or not. If I help one or two people have a better understanding of the affects of under harvest and how devastating it becomes it will be worth putting up with the insults from uneducated, ill-informed and even a few evil minded people.
I think people of average intelligence will be able to figure out which way they want the future of wildlife management to go and who they want shaping that future.
