Personally, I believe it a crime the way we used to harvest 90 percent of yearlings every year.
But that was just more of Alt's propaganda. We harvested 52K ,2.5+ buck in 2002 before a single buck was saved by ARs. That would have been impossible if we harvested 90% of our 1.5 buck. In the second year of ARs we only harvested 62K 2.5+ buck, after ARs were supposed to have saved 50% of our 1.5 buck.
