Any of you guys from 2c Somerset, Cambria or Bedford counties? are you guys seeing any deer? So far deer sightings have been very scarce in the area of Somerset co. I hunt Windber, Elton and rt160 near UPJ these areas have produced for the past 15+ years. Have you seen a big decline this year in deer sign and sightings?
