Shooting a BB happens,but can be avoided most the time if the hunter would take sometime and learn the way to ID a button and stop shooting at a running deer and act like they are playing a video game. In bow season I feel there aint no excuse to shoot a BB by mistake. At that close range it easy to see what it is. And usually a small deer alone and very curious and acting stupis is usually always a button.
Shooting BB cannot be avoided while reducing the herd by 50%. In 2003 hunnters decreased the harvest of fawns by 38K and as a result the anterless harvest dropped by 30K and therefore there was no reduction in the herd after 4 years of Alt's plan. There is no way we can protect 45% of the anterless population and still get the herd reduction Alt claims is necesssary.
