HOLY CRAP!
Where did you dig that up? The font is so old on that article it should be considered heiroglyphic.....
If you hunted as much as you read about the hunting stats, you should have no problem getting your buck....No offense, you are well read!

I was rummaging around in my memory and I do recall one year there was an abundance of racks falling off during buck season and the biologists were scrambling to come up with a cause. The hunting public was panicking with reason scenarios. I did not witness any of this, just read or heard about it, I don't recall which. I acknowledged that it does happen, some years alot I guess, some years hardly at all.
