The reason it is bad is because the primary goal of Alt's plan is herd reduction, not adding more buck. Passing on small deer removes 44% of the potential anterless targets and that will result in much lower anterless harvests ,since fawns are the easiest deer to harvest.

Here is a personal example of how passing on fawns would effect the harvest Our group of 6 harvested 7 anterless deer and 6 were BB. WE didn't target Bb and we didn't pass on any mature doe and we all had anterless tags left over at the end of late ML season. If we would have passed on small deer we would have harvsted 1 deer instead of 7 in an area where the OWDD tables say the herd has to be reduced from 19 DPSM to 6 DPSM.
