RE: Northern , NY fawns or lack of ..
I've seen a decent # of fawns around in the Northern zone. After moving to the Southern zone this summer and looking over all the regulations down here it makes me think the Northern Regulastions are a little too relaxed. Maybe increasing the northern bow season about a week or so, decreasing the length of the rifle season by a 2-3 weeks and making a muzzleloader season after rifle would make hunters happy and decrease a little pressure on the deer. Call me crazy, but there might be a few more good bucks around. The long rifle season is great, but look at the rifle seasons out in midwest states (only a week or two in some). Maybe guys would be seeing a few more deer around.
