How do you like this pure speculation?

And where does it state anything about statewide herd reductions?It doesn't.The SCS is only concerned about the state forests and it even specifically states that.I rest my case.

It is only appropriate to rest your case if you have a case to rest. The fact is that DMAP harvest rates average less than 2 DPSM and that is only for the specific area that is DMAPPED. That harvest rate wouldn't keep up with recruitment in any WMU, which means that if the herd in the entire WMU wasn't reduced DMAP harvest alone would be totally meaningless. Even with a 50% reduction in the herd in 2G, DMAP harvests are not enough to eliminate the need for exclosures. So the fact is you don't have a case to rest.
