"last day to fill my doe only tag. seen lots of deer just none close enough to get a shot at"
I would be SO happy just to be able to say that....I have seen one doe at 60yrds since Sept 15th up here....that is it...ONE doe (and not even a decent size one). I have one friend that has hunted 4 days a week for about a month now dawn to dusk in several diferant areasand he has only seen 2 does and both out of range. I am so frustrated at the lack of animals in my area that I have pretty well given up for the season and am content to just eat hamburger.[:@] Count yourself very lucky that you are at least seeing animals and not sitting in the woods for hours thinking about all the other things you should be doing instead of wasting time looking at red squirrels...

this is my worst deer season here in western clinton county,pa. in my life
i seen 11 doe and 1 buck.
that is for 4 weeks of archery and around a 25 mile circle.
i only hunt bucks and shot was at 33 yards looking at me and i did not want to shoot unless its a broadside shot.
i used to see that many deer in a 1 mile area.
we have miles of woods with no deer now and doe killing continues.
DCNR is very happy and they want hunters to kill all doe off and hunters are doing it.
