No,I haven't finally seen the light.i knew his claims were B.S back then.I still haven't seen where anyone claimed that the size of the average 2.5 year old buck would increase like you claim was said.

RE: Rifle season 2008 is history
ORIGINAL: bluebird2 Everyone I talk to is seeing way more 1.5 bucks both legal size and sub legal size. And virtually everyone I talk to is seeing less does than before. Thepercentage of less doesseen varies widely from place to place. Anybody on this board want to take a stab at it? Denny? How about you? |

Do you believe dominant breeding by older bucks was supposed to produce smaller racks? |

RE: Rifle season 2008 is history
Herd health has not declined and breeding rates have shown no signifcant change either way so rational answer exists because the premise of the question contains erroneous information The only erroneous information is that posted by BTB who has his hands over his eyes so he can't hear and his fingers in his ears so he can't hear. The 2006 AWR shows quite clearly that the breeding rates declined significantly, so BTB is simply not telling the truth. Table 1. Number of does examined, median conception date, percent of does bred between 16 October and 16 December, mean embryos per adult doe (≥ 2 years of age), and adult doe pregnancy rates from 2000 to 2006, Pennsylvania. Year n Median Conception Date Percent bred 16 October to 16 December Mean embryos per adult doe Adult doe pregnancy rates (%) % # % 2000 1,075 14 November 90 1.60 90 2001 942 17 November 91 1.58 92 2002 520 14 November 86 1.64 91 2003 618 14 November 93 1.60 92 2004 601 15 November 90 1.53 89 2005 883 14 November 90 1.51 87 2006 632 11 November 89 1.53 85 |

Guys like BTB just don't get it. They think if they block those that tell the truth , they can make up their own version of the truth and hope that some of the blind followers will believe them. That may make him feel better in the short term ,but eventually it will catch up to him and he will have to face reality.

RE: Rifle season 2008 is history
The rationale behind larger rack sizes was that acloser B/D ratio would produce a less percentage of late born fawns. It was never about genetics.

The 2006 AWR shows quite clearly that the breeding rates declined significantly, so BTB is simply not telling the truth. Since being studied, the average fawns per pregnant adult doe have varied approximately between 1.5 and 1.6. Not statistically a significant difference. There is NO meaningful indicator that herd health or breeding rates have changed. |
