So now y'all trust GC numbers? Yes and no. I trust that the numbers we are looking at are 100% accurate based on those who reported their harvest. I also think that even if GC compliance is only 30%, those percentages of folks who killed 1-5 birds wouldn’t change very much even if compliance was 100%. Preliminary results form the Auburn study show that a later season opening and a reduced limit would allow more hens to be bred. I’m not smart enough to know if that’s true or not but I’ll read the study when they release it. I will be interested in reading the study results too, and I strongly suspect that the later season idea is more a theory than fact. SC reached that conclusion from their study, but they didn't have any real evidence. Common sense would say that if you have only one gobbler in an area and someone kills him before he breeds the hens it will be bad for the flock. They have always managed that in the past by having a later and shorter season in those places. Seems to me that is the reasonable approach.
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
