Default RE: Tell me about your MAIN hunting area...

What is you hunting area like? It is VERY thick woods mixed with fields. Few crops in the fields but some clover. Portions havebeen selectively logged over the last 15 years, making it very thick. 90% of the wooded areas are bedding areas. You have to be VERY careful where you go or you'll bump deer continuously.
*What state? Western PA
*How big is it? Around a 100 acres core, but I have access to probably another 300touching it, depending on what direction. Much of that other 300 is hunted pretty good.
*What's the deer population? Very high, too high in my opinion
*What's the topography like? Hilly, very old reclaimed strip jobs in much of it.
*What are the maintypes ofvegetation / agriculture? Hardwoods and reclaimed strip mine fields. There is lots of corn around the area, but little to none on my places
*What types of trees does the timber consist of? Oaks, maple, hickory, poplar, other hardwoods
