I hope PA does't end up like NYS deer herds,when I use to hunt back in the late 60's and early 70's you would always see deer in the woods .I did see a reduce heard getting into the late8o's were doe tags were being issued on a one per hunter,as time went on the deer heards were now getting thinner.Iwould say the fist heavy winter that took a large part of winter kill was around 95 and 96,and still the doe tags no# were one on one per person. I did hunt last year up in deposit ny with 14 guys that covered a mountain side ,how many deer were taken O on opening day.
I also owned property in PA up near honesdale any on any given day you would see aleast 20 does in the woods ,I still keep intoich with some fellow hunter up in that area and they said the same deer heard are down,all in all too many anterless tages are being issued and I could never understand why some guys get so many tags ,sooner or later the deer will be gone in certain area.
