Pretty cool photos from Nov 2 and Feb 1. Amazing the neck size difference. Photos are about 400 yards apart. Main target for next year and hopefully can find his sheds when its time. Snow picture is 30 yards from where I have a bow stand and shot my PA buck this year just about where he's standing, I also have a stand in the top spot, major rut travel routes.
I believe 2 buck tags will always damage the hunting here more than any season length. Pa has an extended season, heck pretty much every state does that has big and good hunting.
Maybe, my kid just turned 12 so i gotta have him take the safety class and we will get out. Every though he's shot 4 deer and many small game animals in PA lol.
this is the first time I went out, I didn't hear another shot or see another person beside my hunting partner the last day. Deer were acting like they do in bow season again completely normal.
I hope they don't, it didn't really change how many deer id shoot, just made me want to save a tag for it. I actually enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. Probably because of the near perfect weather.
Took 4 doe in Ny off 3 properties, got a nice buck in PA. Son got a big doe youth hunt pa. Dad got a small buck. Good year, not my best but freezer is full and we gave some meat to people, and had a damn good time doing it.
