RE: Pa. point restrictions?
I have learned to accept the changes but it is very hard for me where I hunt it is very thick with alot of brush and it is a young woods. I can see the deer as they move and am able to tell if they are a buck or not but I have to do this before they reach a natural shooting lane I have cause that's the only place to shoot a good clean shot. now this lane is my counting spot and shooting spot. Not good! Every buck I have ever seen in my 17 yrs of hunting rifle season has always been either running full speed or gettin through the woods pretty quick from pressure. They just aren't standing there like buckmasters! As far as in a couple years there will be bigger bucks and you'll be able to tell in an instant whether it's a shooter or not. My cousin's buck which I will try to get a picture of, shot a beautiful 6 pointer four years ago that had a 21" spread, 12" main beams,is very thick massed but no brow tines. Looking at it at several angles looks to be atleast a 8 or 10. I think it's just to darn hard to count points!
