RE: What has happened to Traditional PA Deer Hunting ?
BM you plant food plots so you can kill a buck that comes looking for those does, be it in the plot or on a trail leading to the plot...whom do you think is gulible enough not to think it is exactly about killing a deer. If you wanted to photogragh deer you'd set your trail cams up over by that farmer's field.
The "Religion card" as you refer to it IS one of the biggest reasons you don't see Sunday hunting today. that is fact. The PGC answers every request for Sunday hunting with that "card" as well as to state they depend on private land owners leaving their land open to the public. They ( PGC) feels most landowners themselves need a break 1 day from the other 6.
Chickory said it best...go to the meeting on 1/23,24,25 and listen to boscola tell how she'd like to see current hunting become more restrictive, then ask for another hunting day. Mike Schmidt and company will laugh you right out onto I78.
