(next to game lands, posted with signs saying public hunting welcome, and DMAPed)
I have to change my position.I can't and won't call the poster a liar but just say I'm skeptical.
Correct me if I'm wrong BT but was the public land you were hunting on out in the western part of the state?I read and hear there's good populations out there on public lands.Man in the last couple of years I've been hunting in Berks,Lancaster,Lebanon,Daupin,Perry,Centre,and Clearfield counties and haven't come anywhere close to seeing 120 deer in a season let alone 40 together.I know quite a few hunters and the people I've talked to would need close to 10 seasons to hit those numbers.
