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

Is that still based on 1.6 million deer?

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.

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"

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
