Outfitters and landowners are consuming, on average 34%, of the antlered mule deer in the 200 zones scheduled to be put on resident archery draw.
Now there is the problem. But the solution is being rammed down our resident throats by math experts using meaningless numbers.
I like to think my numbers have more thought put into them and you have blown big holes in them (which I cannot argue..), so why not switch sides and call the current approach a pile of garbage???

LOL...I was helping you understand the 15% number.....not making a case for anything else. I happen to have a pretty strong background in stats. Some stats are arguable...some aren't. No point wasting your time on the ones that aren't. There are enough in this situation that are...it's important to know the difference or all of your thoughts are easily dismissed by the government. Arguing that 32% of the big hunting population are bow hunters will quickly have all of your thoughts dismissed......
I was honestly trying to do you a favour and help you understand.....that's why I was so patient....so you can pout because I pointed out the folly of your arguement or you can say thanks and be better armed to fight this when speaking with the government. You pick..........
I didn't know brining up facts put you on a side......lol....this site cracks me up sometimes. I don't agree with your flawed math so I'm against you....interesting. Perhaps I was just trying to help you............
