In WV, the deer harves is down 30%. The DNR claims that it is due to bad hunter weather, which is partially true. But I believe that last year's bad winter, coupled with low acorn crops are equally, if not more to blame (starvation and/or deer down low on the mountains, etc.). This is probably true with PA too (at least the bad winter part). I have heard so many reports of little deer sign that it can't simply be the weather!
