RE: How much bow an gun pressure does your area get?
Pressure isn't the word I would use on the public land I hunt.
Bow stares the 1st of October.Then youth squirrel/pheasantstarts the second week of October for a full week,followed by a full week of in-line muzzleloader about the 15th of Oct. ,then at the end of that week 3 days of youth/senior RIFLE. Small game for grouse,rabbits,pheasant is next andin late October for the rest of monthuntil the end of archery wethrow in turkey 3 weeks. Excluding special reg. areas,the ONLY time an archery hunter is alone in the woods in PA is the first week of the season.
Oh ,I forgot , gun season starts the monday after Thanksgiving for 2 weeks.
