Hippie, each buck breeding 3 does is a fantasy. It don’t happen.
Buck mortality is WAY higher than y’all are assuming in your math. Even on properties where hunting related mortality is zero.
Truth. Hunters have this misguided belief that a few dominant bucks are screwing all of the does. They find a hot doe, stick with her 2-3 days and mate several times. The buck has fend off any other bucks that may try to take her. This is why in properties with an imbalanced herd the rut is drawn out over multiple estrous cycles.
