What effect is the lack of mature does having on the herd's balance?

Have any of the hard-core QDm'ers considered the consequences of having the vast majority of the DOE segment of the herd made up of immature females. From widely varying estrous cycles due to birth date, to lower conception rates, to lack of experience rearing fawns and dealing with predators, to ill-established pecking orders.....ALL which cause LOWER FAWN RECRUITMENT!!!!

If you have never considered these factors while considering harvest strategy....BUT, you do promote trying to harvest mature bucks......you need to wonder if 'Herd Health' is really your primary concern!!!

BTW, not directed at ANY one individual.......but, instead, a large collective group!
