RE: PGC data flawed
 

The doe mortality study shows that hunters are killingless than 8% of the doe.

RE: PGC data flawed
 

Is that still based on 1.6 million deer?:eek:

RE: PGC data flawed
 

The study was conducted after the herd had been decimated and the researchers clearly stated that the results did not represent the true harvest rate for doe.

RE: PGC data flawed
 

The study was done since the time Sproul is claimingthe herd was decimated from 9 dpsm to 3 dpsm.

That's right ,and who wants to go down in history as shooting the last doe standing with a collar on it.:)

I am sure there are many that wouldnt care bb

RE: PGC data flawed
 

Unfortunately you are right, but there are still a lot of hunters that care and it still makes the results from the study far from an accurate representation of the doe harvests across the state and the simple fact that in 2007 we harvested almost 2 antlerless deer for every antlered buck proves that PA hunters are still very effective at harvesting enough doe to exceed recruitment.

Probably the same kind of guys that would wipe out all the button bucks in an area right about the same time and for an excuse DeadDeer simply said "thats all we saw"

RE: PGC data flawed
 

That is just another one of your lies . We didn't wipe out all the BB in the area. We still had 1.5 buck the following year.

OK OK not all, almost all. Remember It was you that told us there was "virtually" none when you posted your results the next season
