I live in WV and live close enough to the PA border that it makes sense for me to buy tags in both. Didn't apply for a PA doe license and hunted state game lands where I could have busted a doe just about every day I hunted. Saw one nice six, but where I hunt is a four a side area. Never made it back up to hunt rifle season.

In North Central WV I'm finding the opposite of what a lot of people have posted here. I hunt two private pieces of property. One is in Northern Preston County (about 200 acres) and the other is just outside Grafton (about 75 acres). I hunted the Grafton property pretty heavily, 2-3 times a week during bow season andsaw a number of does, smaller bucks and spikes, a six and an eight that never came into bow range, and probably the nicest deer I've ever seen (heavy horned perfectly symetrical 10 point that came within six yards of clearing a thicket and subsquently hanging on my wall on the third weekend of the season-still hurts).

But you guys are talking about does and without a doubt, I passed up more does this year than I ever have. I busted one on the second Saturday of bowseason at about 8:30 in the morning, and she was the 19th doe I had seen that morning.Then I busteda five point that was deformed on one side on the first morning of rifle season. He was the kind ofdeer that probably wasn't going to get any better. And that's it for me.My fiance and I can only eat so much meat in one year.I shoot one deer per season for meat and then I'm horn hunting only, but this year I very seriously considered bagging extra does for some friends, cause there were just too many. I was seeing half a dozen does or more every time I got up a tree. If you guys have got bucks, I've got plenty of does to fill your freezer with, and we shouldtrade some hunts.
