Default RE: PA BB Harvests

Again, nobody is calling for increased buck harvests.

If you don't want increased byck harvests ,why save BB? Do you just want them to get hit by cars or die from other non-hunting mortality. Obviously the main reason one wants to save BB is so there will be more buck available to be harvested.



With HR there will be decreased harvests, most understand this. For AR to work, the bucks must survive. Again, most understand this.

Alt apparently didn't understand it because he promised more and bigger buck than we have ever had before. But he lied , just as he lied when he said AR would double the number of 8 pt. buck. AR will not work with HR even if we save more BB, because for every adult doe that is harvested in place of a BB, decreases breeding rates and recruitment and decreases the number of BB even faster than if we harvested BB instead of adult doe. AR can't save 1.5's that aren't born just as AR can't save 1.5's that were harvested as BB, but shooting adult doe instead of fawns decreases the number of BB faster and the effects are cummulative.
