I don't really have a dog in this fight but from my experience on the ranches I have guided and worked with, helicopter surveys have way too many variables to make your harvest counts from. Definitely do a second survey with a different method. For example, there is a guy in North Texas that does thermal drone surveys. Pretty neat stuff and the count is much more accurate IMO. May check into that.
Also, you are ****ing into the wind if you don't have an aggressive predator control program in place. Again just IMO.
