Just another thought some counties have had more significant issues with disease than others, a county with already high population such as Jo Davies and others in the Golden Triangle have distinct advantages to rebound from the effect of any disease. Some places are not so fortunate to have the herd strength to withstand it and make a quick rebound. Also I wonder what the true result is when large numbers of doe's are reduced in a given area either by late season,doe only tags, or disease effects. This will cause a plummet in plain numbers when most will produce 2 offspring. Those numbers take time to replace given good conditions let alone with the disease and the extra tags still out there putting downward pressure on numbers in some areas. I've heard many guys say it both ways some see 10% of what they used to and some see 70 to 80% of what they used to. Should be interesting to see the final #'s in the spring.
