RE: Do YOU REALLY practice Quality Deer Management????
In my county.... the herd is way out of whack... or at least it "was" before this season. Parts of Westmoreland are fairly lopsided as well.
Depending on which survey you believe... the Allegheny doe population outnumbers the buck by nearly 8:1... and that is being conservative [according to some].
Don't ask where I received that info from... I can't remember. However, being in the woods nearly every day this year... leads me to believe these numbers are pretty close [in some areas].
In other counties... the "doe:buck" ratio isn't nearly as bad... which re-opens the "Alt" can of worms which, I'm sure, most of us would rather see in a separate thread to ensure this one stays on topic.
Thanks.
