RE: Pa deer count day 8
Just got back from a week in Potter Co, area 2G. There were 3 of us, 10 in another cabin and 2 in a third cabin. One other cabin and the B&B lodge were empty, one cabin had mountain bikers in it. Use to be a waiting list for staying here for October - November.
Our group of 3: no deer, I saw 6, 2 SMALL spikes, 3 does who didn't come in range and 1 not sure. 2nd guy saw 4 that went past me to him, third saw nothing.
Cabin of 10 hunters, got 1 deer.
Cabin of 2 saw nothing.
TONS AND TONS of food, acorns and cherries everywhere, apple trees all loaded. Couldn't even find deer driving around at night.
This particular area of Potter Co has had way to many deer taken out of it.

I went out tonight and saw one deer moving into a field , hard to tell what it was , had a huge body , the real kick was i thought about hunting the stand that the deer walked right by to enter the field , but i didnt think the wind was right for it tonight! shoulda stuck with my gut and went there . Im seeing deer , just need to see the RIGHT one now i guess!
