tell us how the PGC caused thedeer herd to crash in 2Gwith far less tags. Oh and for extra credit, maybe you'd like to explain how less tags caused such a high doe kill in an area where the study showed that less than 15% of the legal doein that study in 2G died at the hands of hunters.

In 2003 52K tags produced a harvest of 4.93 doe PSM which exceed recruitment and reduced the OWDD. In 2005 it only required 19,000 antlerless tags to produce a doe harvest of only 1.5 doe PSM which kept the herd stable. So, it is obvious that once the herd is reduced it takes a lot fewer tags to produce a harvest that equals the number of fawns recruitment by a reduced number of OW doe.
If no deer were harvested in 2003 and 2004 the OWDD would have increased buy over 12 DPSM, so it is obvious that the herd did not crash due to natural causes, but due to harvests that exceeded recruitment.
