It is virtually impossible to have a prehunt adult sex ratio greater
than 2:1
Vt, I' m not a biologist, but I can show you the virtually impossible.... if you care to travel south. In VA and WV....no doubt. In WV I wouldn' t doubt 10:1 ratios in many areas. In VA, it' s probably better than WV, but if it' s virutally impossible to have this...why does the VA DNR allow hunters to kill over 100 DOES per season, per hunter? That seems odd to me, if the pop is already in good balance.

Dan O....if it was me in your situation, I think I might let some folks hunt does....and be very specific as to the fact that they can ONLY harvest does...period. Your kindof in a tough situation.
