I haven't posted for awhile so I'll chime in.
I'm lucky enough to have two tracts of private land to hunt here in Lancaster county.The SGL's here are pathetic and I'm done hunting them.
As for our camp in the NC again lucky enough to hunt on private land with most of it being open to hunting.However there's just enough posted properties to keep a decent number of deer around.
The state forest around our camp is pathetic within a 45 minute drive in any direction.I'm talking about deer.
I feel for you guys stuck on public land and advise you to seek some private land or get a lease cause it aint going to get better.
Some will say I'm being negative but I tells it as I see it.
