2009 Deer Season...
PeteC:
It was a very slow season for my bunch around here.I am very thankful for the spike I got in October bow season,because that was my only opportunity all season. God Bless
mullet:
This was a better season for me than last year and still have two weeks left. Last year I got 28 hogs and no deer. This year I didn't get a shot during archery but got two does with my sidelock black powder and a 3 pt, with my flintlock. I got two turkeys last weekend with the BP shotgun. I also had a sow bear about 250# sniff me at less than 2' and then haul butt when she new it was a people. That was exciting, I had the barrel of my muzzleloader about 3' from her face with the double set trigger already set. It has been a fun year so far.

Ryano:
That's cool Mike. The only thing semi auto we're allowed for hunting is a shotgun plugged for 3 shells, for small game, turkey and migratory birds only. Pa has the most (strict) annoying game laws of any state I've hunted in.
