RE: PA Antler restrictios--working?
In my area definately working...Killed a 7-1/2 year old 13 pointer this year that dressed out at 187 lbs with a 142 gross score. I love AR!
Most of the Nay sayers in my area are slowly begining to like see the light on AR...and the now support it. Alot of Nicer quality animals.
I personally think the deer #s are about where they should be. However, we hunted alot of SGL's the 2nd week of the season and i will say the PGC needs to do some major timbering! They are all mature hardwoods with nothing for the deer to eat ) except acorns if there is a mast crop.
My observations....from the 2nd week...Where there was food and cover the deer where there....Open pole timber or mature hardwoods and there was nothing!!
