T-in-Pa2, you guys do have some huge bear and with it only being a 3 day season(correct me if I am wrong) I would say that those are some huge numbers. I here that PA bear hunters rely mostly on drives and hunting around cherry trees.
Non-residents do contribute to the highest number of kills for sure and guides have the state pretty much sewn up as far as baits are concerned. If you ever want to try a new spot, give me a holler and I will set you up with some great hunting!!

take care,

Marlin
