Interesting problem.

Offering up some numbers but I'm not a pro...

My understanding...

Recommended stocking of LMB is 50 to 100 per acre so for a 1.5 acre that is 150 so you were a little high at 200.

Recommended stocking of BG to LMB is 30:1. If that is correct, BG stocked would be 6000 for 200 LMB.

If those numbers are correct, your LMB may not have enough forage and will be under performing. I would expect to see a shortage of small BG.
