livbucks,

At last someone speaks some true facts gathered from the field! I'm not from PA. I have hunted and scouted farms up there over the decades. IMHO and with all do respect to true game managers up there (hunters). PA has a mind set with respect to harvesting deer. You guys kill more deer on highways than most states have as total population! Alot of slob hunting up there, if it's brown it's down. As you said, BB are easy targets - stupid critters who wander around,dispersed from mom and Boom!. I don't blame any of this on Fish and Wildlife managers. I blame it on the slobs who do exactly what you just stated.

Back to the topic at hand. It does not take a rocket scientist to distiguish BB from a Doe. Do we/I make mistakes in shooting BB on ocassion - YES. That is no freekin excuse to not practice QDM in mangaing our Deer herd and at same time improve the health and quality of our Bucks. I think thats a no brainer.

Livbucks - I clearly see your point.
