What the data cannot tell you is how many deer should have been killed.
That percentage is based on what you want to do with the overall deer population, such as increase, maintain, or decrease. Fawn recruitment plays a major factor in this.
It seem there are many pieces in this complicated puzzle that, I for one, am glad that I don't have to try and figure out.
If I see 100 deer in a season and choose only to kill 3, what does the reported data tell you? 3 deer have been killed. If the next year I only see 3 deer and kill them all, what does the reported data tell you? 3 deer have been killed. With many clubs having different standards today than in the past, many deer or young bucks are being passed on that used to would have been killed. I certainly don't have any answers and do not envy those that have to make the decisions. No decision they make will ever be right, in many people's mind. I just enjoy hunting and want this sport to be preserved.
As I've said before, using only harvest data is like trying to drive forward by only looking at your rearview mirror.
