Im not sure how these extra days are going to help the harvest if the deer have pretty much already went nocturnal, between the illegal motorcycle riding, the small game hunting and the building of illegal stands ( beating and banging in the what is left of the deers home). I bowhunt the northern half of the c&d only till the first firearm deer season comes in, after that (imho) your just killing time (bowhunting on the northern part of the canal). This year there may be a good harvest in this area, simply because the deer have nowhere to go with all the new houses along the canal. It seems that the same people that are concerned about the deer browsing on their shrubbery, are the same people who think the canal is there childrens personal dirt bike track. Ill do more than usual preseason scouting next year, if it looks even more bleak, then ill be done with DE and just hunt wva.
