Makes for some damn tough hunting also. I hunt Lycoming Co. in 2G and its not fun to try to pattern deer for archery when your not seeing them. Even in the area I live and hunt with farm lands the herd is down. Food isnt the cause lots around good mast this past season. Habitat is there lots of wood patches and brushy areas. Not even sure it the harvest . I usually know roughly how many are taken in my neighborhood. So you tell me why its down.
