If I remember correctly, and I may not, at the end of youth week the total was a little over 1200. That means bout 8400 birds last week.
then 20,000 it is.I believe one stat I read years ago is that 50% of the harvest takes place between the first two Saturdays. That was before Sunday hunting. So let's see what the harvest is by this Sunday, double it, and see how accurate that is.
amazingly i had 50% of the chatham county reported kill in 1996. i killed one.The rate is slowing down. Probably get a nice bump this Saturday.
I find it hard to believe that Hawglips grandson and I have killed over 10% of the birds in Lee Co. harvest.

Yea, no clue how that is calculated.i have no clue now but those 3 year averages were meangingless early on. the comparison was useless info. havent looked ta it since but maybe the late opener was an issue or something. maybe it was using calandar dates versus days in season, i dont know.
just something to consider in looking at it.
Little mixed up by that disabled statement as far as turkey there are no early hunts before youth. Now for deer that is true there are disabled deer hunts labor day wknd but not for TurkeyAs above, after talking with my biologist about numbers last week. He isn't a big fan of numbers till the end of the season either. A couple of hours later he called me and said he had just been talking with the IT people because some things just didn't look right to him. He was told that the numbers are calculated from the first hunting day of turkey season each year. Some years there are some special disabled hunts that happen sometimes a few weeks prior to the youth season. As most are aware, the opening day of the regular season varies from year to year, sometimes by as much as a week. The numbers we see on the "past 3 years" is generated by the live harvest past harvest on the same "date" which will not be accurate once all the numbers are in and the total harvests are compared. i hope i got this right and. if it is correct, it is less confusing for you than it is for me. I told my guy that he shouldn't have told me about that comparison button. It just confused the issue and me as well.
they dying like flies and i cant work one. I wish this system had never been invented and we could argue and use our own experiences to decide how the kill was going.
yes.You know that statement is dripping with irony, right?
