<< < (7/9) > >>

Little John:
Beautiful deer Ryan, good luck.    Kenneth

Ryano:
That they are Pat. One thing having this camera has taught me is most of the scrape rub activity occurs after dark.
heck every picture I have of the bigger bucks is either really early morning or late at night. I'm convinsed your only chance to kill them is durring the rut unless you can slip into thier bedding area undetected which isnt likely... :P

Thanks Kenneth. Any luck with them elk yet?

Pat B:
We had pics of 3 different bucks on our club last year with split brow tines. Nobody in the club in almost 25 years of hunting there has seen a split brow tine deer. ???  All the pics but one were midnight to 2am. The one was during prime morning hunting time but a week before the season. None have been seen since.     Many of the older bucks probably go nocturnal as soon as we hit the woods. ;)

Hardawaypoints:
Have you seen a lot of changes to your herd since Pa. added the antler restrictions? 

I have a friend outside Harrisburg that wasn't real keen on them until  a couple of years passed and some trophy class bucks began showing up on his scouting camera.  Before, a tight-racked 4 x 4 was enough to make him drool, now he has a chance a a real good deer and those big boys are doing the majority of the breeding.

My nephews say the same hardaway.....they hunt the kittaning area and have gotten some bruisers on public land the last few years.
I haven't hunted in pennsy since '98  >:(
