Screamin Steel please dont confuse QDM with the PGC's deer plan, because our deer plan has nothing to do with QDM. I am as big of a QDM avocate as you will ever find ( Please see Link below) and also about as big of anti PGC. Deer plan advocate as you will find aswell
Here is a case where both of you have valid points. JP is correct in saying the PGC plan is not QDM. But, QDMA of PA awarded Alt the deer manger of the year award which means they supported the PGC plan as representative of the goals of QDMA.But, SS is correct in stating that QDM supports maintaining the herd at much higher DD than the PGC plan as indicated by the QDMA article on the Remmington Farms herd where they had more bucks PSM than the total herd in terms of DPSM in 2G.
