I know the digital pics are so much better, but I have only been using a digital for a couple of years.
These are pics of pics andI was having a heck of a time photographing glossy photos.
I surely hope you don't mind me cropping out my Dad's and Son's faces??

Wrong! Pure spin and you know it! It means that the very top end bucks didn't vary much as measured by antler score. The average quality was decreasing, however because the average came form far fewer bucks in the high end category. that would have meant far more small bucks percentage wise at those times.
LOL!! I used your words. cant have it both ways sport!
That is pure unadulterated crap and you know it. once again you are a proven liar.

You don't have a clue what you are talking about. the record book buck have nothing to do with the average buck in the herd. They are the exception to the rule and do not represent the avergae buck in the herd.

Maybe you wouldn't confuse yourself if you stuck to one story. Telling the truth is the easiest way to do that. When recalling what you said, it;s easy if there was only one version to remember.
Try it. It may be tough at first but I think you'll find it will reduce your stress level

What IS significant is that the immediate past two decades (and this one is not over yet) produced the two highest numbers of high quality bucks from (as you so adamantly claim) a smaller total population of deer.

WMU's 4B and 5B (me on the right) checkin' in!
(just because

I absolutely believe that 2G picture........I was basically called a liar earlier this year because a buddy and I spotted several P&Y quality bucks from the Sproul State forest one of which looked eerily similar to that one on the bottom right.
And it took us all of 1hr to find them on State forest!

That is what you posted and it was a flat out lie. During the past two decades the herd was an at all time high and i never claimed the highest number of high quality buck came from a smaller population. the simple fact is you lie to cover up your ignorance.
What IS significant is that the immediate past two decades (and this one is not over yet) produced the two highest numbers of high quality bucks from (as you so adamantly claim) a smaller total population of deer.
As the herd was reduced from 1980 to the 1998 the average antler score decreased.

No , you are lying once again. you took a quote of RSB and attributed to me or you took a comment of mine about the population in 2g and attributed to the state wide herd. Which lie are you guilty of this time?

Here it is LIAR The entire post as it apppears on the preceding page. I took the liberty of copying the whole thing including the header in case you decide to pull a the corny stunt of editing after the fact.

Here is another way of looking at the data RSB posted. The biggest buck were produced from 1931 to 1970 , which was the period with the highest DD and the worst over browsing in the NC counties. As the herd was reduced from 1980 to the 1998 the average antler score decreased. Then from 1998 to the present the herd, the combined effects of a record deer population still didn't produce the quality of buck that were harvested in 1941 to 1950.
