Odd there is no mention of an actual increase in license revenue in that article.

Based on the: "Nonresident license sales also decreased from last season by 2,283". According to my cyphering, and just based on General Licese sales numbers, the license revenue actually decreased by roughly $130k.



"The drop in nonresident license sales is a surprise considering the increase in large bucks due to antler restrictions ought to be a draw for out-of-state hunters."

And given the fact that gas prices duringmost of DeerSeason were the lowest in several years.
I have cousin from Ohio, also a buddy and his two son's who live inSW- NY, that come to PA. to hunt.It was the economy in general that kept them from coming to PA.this past season. My cousin is a professional fishing guide.His business was down last year. My buddy from NY. owns and operates produce farming along Lake Ontario, hehad a tuff year also. This is why they didn't spend to hunt in PA.[/align]
