What BB doesn't understand is that hunters are killing less than 15% of the deer that die in 2G

RE: Pa Game Comm. Overhaul
The PGC has stated that the harvest rates of the does being tracked was not representative of the over all kill ratio. Furthermore before you try to belittle a fellow hunter you should do the math to see if you claim had any relationship to reality. If the 2007 harvest of 11,700 deer represented 15% of the deer that died in 2007, then we have the following equation.
.15X=11,700 where X represents the total number of deer that died in 2G in 2007. Now dividing .15 into 11,700 ,according to your theory 78,000 or 19 DPSM, deer died in 2G in 2007. Now that is a truly amazing number when you consider the PGC claimed there were 49,368 PS deer in 2G in 2005. In any case you are claiming 6.6 times more deer died from natural causes than were harvested. Even the USP wouldn't make such a ridiculous claim.

Pgc claims, numbers etc. that dont add up? Gee thats a new one! (LOL)
Same could be said of their wild claims. Seems a new mistruth or inconsitency is pointed out on a daily basis these days. Im not sure if its complete ineptitude on their part or just a very poorly camoed willingness to decieve.

RE: Pa Game Comm. Overhaul
Here is why the doe harvest rates do not represent the true harvest rates for deer without collars.
When presented with a scenario of 2 antlerless deer where one of the deer
was wearing a radio collar, few hunters (13%) would harvest the deer with the
radio collar. Most were undecided (49%), but 38% would not harvest the antlerless
deer with the collar.
For hunters who were more willing to harvest an antlerless deer with a
radio collar, 49% were undecided or disagreed that they would harvest an
antlerless deer with a radio collar if they saw 2 antlerless deer. Of those who
were less likely to harvest an antlerless deer with a radio collar, 70% would not
harvest an antlerless deer with a collar if they saw 2 antlerless deer.
