I have a theory that makes no sense, but there is something to it, let me know what you think. Some of these units in Utah have a 1-1 or close to it bull cow ratio. I cannot beleive this is good for the herd. My theory is these units that are spike only right know,or have lower age class objectives are killing bigger bulls than the 7-8 class units. Arizona kills huge bulls, and they have 300 or more bull tags a year. There is something to the fact that bulls get bigger if there are not as many of them. I am not saying there should only be 2-3 bulls on a unit, but you look at south west desert, monroe panguitch lake pahvant, and they are not doing as well or better in my mind as Dutton boulder, manti, Beaver, and I am sure other units that I am not aware of. I think there are 2 many bulls on some of these units and it is hurting the herd. I hunted one of these 7-8 year old units thsi year, lots of goood busted bulls, not herded up because there are to many bulls trying to take there cows away and they can't take care of them. Am I up in the night?? or is there really something to this??
