Deer hunting update.

<< < (34/52) > >>

Ryano:
Jesse, one buck per year through out the entire state. Doe tags very from management unit to management unit. They are all by drawing. In my unit your lucky to get one doe tag. Pennsylvania is different from any other state, it has more hunters than deer.

Well, I missed the rut by a few days. :o Last week end they said the shooting was heavy. One member's son shot a nice 18", 7 point that went 170 live weight. This weekend we couldn't buy a deer! >:(  Pat

Pappy:
Had a great week and seen a lot of deer. My buddies that was in from Ohio missed 6 shots
4 by one and 2 by the other.Seen 2 nice buck Sat. evening and thought I was going to get a shot at a big 10 point ,had him clear at 28 steps but that is a little much for me.He just wouldn't come any closer.Did take a doe so the week was fine.Had good weather and the rut just seems to come and go around here.Nice buck Ryan and beautiful picture with the snow.Grant[castIron] took a 6 point and even tho it was with a custom long bow I thought it would be ok here. ;) The muzzler loader season was open so there were some nice buck taken around here.

Well the week is over and Steve (Hillbilly) and his buddy J.T. are home, back in western NC. I had invited them up here because they lost their area to hunt in down the road a bit from me. Too close to civilization etc. I have a selection (That means a ton) of deer that come thru here and did not pressure them for a week till they came.  It was M.L. season, (OK, OK its not with a bow), starting on the 3ed of Nov. and they scouted and set up their stands and started hunting on the 5th. All told they got 4 deer, two apeice. One 4 point, one button and two Doe. I was real glad they could do it. I will give the deer a week or so to calm down and then go out with the long bow and see what is up. Steve probably could have gotton one with the bow because at one point he said there were so many deer below him he could not figure out which one to shoot. I do believe the deer did not know they were in the area because they kept comming in on the virtual same pattern. Below is a selection of photos of what kept comming in at all hours of the day and night. The area is directly in back of my house and the food plot is clover and some soy bean. I feed them a lot of corn also. We "do not" hunt this area but put the stands up a ways away. There is a passel of trails comming thru the south portion of the property, about 300 yards away,  and that is where the guys got them.

Heading out after work today. Will be the last bowhunting for a few weeks, rifle season opens the 15th and I will be avoiding the
gun toting crazies ;) I plan on going out with the 06 to fill a couple of doe tags in another area but I don't consider it hunting just grocery
shopping ;D Must have some venison for the long cold winter eh.
