I can see the same quality bucks by looking at back issues of the PGN from the 70s,80's and 90s. There is no evidence that the 2.5+ buck are any bigger than before ARs.
Blah Blah Blah!!!
We've been down this road before. Anyone with a brain doesnt think that 2.5+ bucks are bigger. Any fool realizes that it's a matter of more 2.5+ bucks on average than before making the average buck bigger and better.
Juvenile bucks are now a smaller part of the harvest as it should be. The average age went up, not the average size for a given age. Either you are trying to mislead folks or you have no grasp of the obvious.
