No, I am not from that area but I hunted a property bordering that state park for a number of years. I no longer have rights to hunt there, but the deer numbers in the area have declined quite a bit in recent years. In fact, it was easy to get 2 doe permits there for many years but now one needs preference points to get even one. I guess bowhunting odds would still be good in that park, even with less deer overall. The ticks seem to be pretty bad around that area. I know whenever it was a warmer day, even later during the general gun season, I would find several ticks on my pants once I got out of the woods. One really needs to be careful there compared to the Catskill region where I don't think I have ever found a tick on myself.
