BTBowhunter,you are 100% correct on the way dpsfm was calculated.It never made sense to me either.Deer are creatures of the edge,not just the forest.I think it makes much more sense to calculate the deer herd using deer per square mile.However dpsm equates to more deer than dpsfm because the deer are actually spread out in reality.They are the real goals dd posted.I don't know about you but I find that pretty scary.Those goals and Alt's lies are the reason I don't support this program.I'm all for giving ar a try and reasonable herd reductions.I just can't climb aboard something with goals that will ruin our hunting and deceiptful methods being used to obtain them.
