Another thread got me thinking......

Do you think your fellow HNI'ers would be surprised if they saw how/where you REALLY hunted?

I mean.....size of your woodlots; quantity of deer/turkeys; quantity of quality bucks; proximity of dwellings/structures; etc...??????

That's why I love having friends in to hunt. When I speak of hunting certain areas....seeing certain animals......I KNOW they can relate.

Would your fellow HNI'ers be surprised if they saw how you really hunted?

No, I don't see how they'd be surprised. I mean we have plenty of Ohio, Pa guys online they know the types of terrain etc. Plus in my team threads (contest) I get pretty descriptive on set-ups and stuff. Plus I hunt alot of Public Ground and anyone is welcome there..they may be surpirised where I go and how I get there....lol.



For the PA boys, I've spent so many days on SGL 74 I can remember when the bridge WAS there

Definatly no big woods here! I have a 4 acre parcel and an 8 acre, and also about 50 acres. 3 different farms. Alot of feilds but hey it seems to work. Lots of houses around and the deer are there!

No my place just like everyone elses,

I think they may be shocked to see the quality of bucks in my area and just the sheer number of deer too.

I think that I've fairly represented my hunting area on here

I think they would. BUt who knows.

Ryan.

Nope, it is woods thats it. No fields, no buildings no nothing. Just woods.

TeeJay....from the description of your hunting grounds.....I think many woud be surprised at how you hunt.

Respect.

Yes. I think a lot of HNI guys would be really shocked to see the amount of hunting pressure that public (or open-private)land in SW PA receives. In the farmland that I hunt after work, I feel like you can't move 300 yards without running into a tack line, an old treestand, a pile of deer bones, an estrus bottle, a scent wick or a tree with climber tracks running up it. But hilly farmland really isn't anything unique.

In the gamelands, it's your standard laurel highlands - which is quite unique, and would be really neat to a lot of people who've never seen that type of terrain.It can, however,be intimidating, and not exactly conducive to great bowhunting.
