RE: Another death in Pa.
Well, since everyone else has seemed to have lost sight of what I consider to be the #1 biggest violation, which I have personally witnessed on our property is TRESPASSING (and poaching). I have found 6 doe heads total in the last 2 springs when getting up there to turkey hunt, which were killed way after the season and after the thaw. Pretty easy to tell when their eyes haven't even rotted out yet. How can anyone feel sorry for some stupid bastard that feels he owns every inch of the woods or whatever. The kind folks in Clinton County (Shintown) seem to have the same mindset as these two when it comes to our property. I guess Private Property/ No Trespassing/ No Hunting signs mean nothing.
I also get such a big laugh from all you "PA" hunters when you claim all of these deer just run enmass to private property for all of the property owners to shoot. LOL Just for your info, our Whitetail migration hasn't happened on our property in the past 2 years. I seen 7 last year and only 2 this year, for a whopping total of nine does in 10 days of hunting. I guess the lowland creatures diverted the main body of the whitetail heard off it's normal migration pattern to some other private property.
