RE: Deer management in PA
I live and hunt in the NC (3A) and hunt both private and public land and hunted more this year than ever as I am now working midnite shift with my days off. I didn't see hardly 30 deer in ALL hunting seasons combined.
I hunt in Sask. everyother year and that's about what I see there but I know that going in. Pa has way to big of a pop. to try and manage deer like they do there in Sask..
I also hunt in Tx every year on my father in laws ranch it is nothing to see 200 deer a DAY.
i don't recall anyone complaining about deer numbers 25 yrs ago here in what is now 3A, and we killed plenty of big bucks then too!
If a hunters opts to pass on a spike,Y or even a small 8 that should be his choice not forced on him here in Pa just like in Tx or Sask.
