Because we can't shoot spikes and forkhorns anymore our buck harvest fell 54 %
ARs decreased our buck harvest from 203K in 2001 to 165K in 2002 ,which is a decrease of 17% ,not 54%.If the herd was not being reduced the buck harvest in 2003 would have returned to around 190 K but instead it dropped to 142K,which is a decrease of 30% from 2001.
