RE: Western Maryland
Cut my teeth bowhunting the Fredrick City watershead, off of 15N, Loads of deer up there. We mainly hunted the tops of the hills, in thick tangled grape vines, etc. I'm talking bow hunting here. Gun season was a fiasco-- too many hunters.20 years ago, the gypsy moth devastated the hardwoods up there, but 5/6 years later, the lack of canopy gave way to some of the thickest, nastiest deer habitat you'd ever seen. Unfortunately, I just saw on the news today that the gypsy moths are back, and with a vengence.
