RE: How many Delaware hunters
Dont own a handgun. I didnt see anyone at one of the public lands that was open for it. I think its cool that the handgunners get a chance to use their weapon of choice. I just wish they would have waited 1 more year until they had the herd data thats coming out. Oh well, one year wont decimate the herd.

RE: How many Delaware hunters
Heard 2 handgun shots on adjacent farm and 2 on adjacent WMA.
I Saw 4 come out at 5:10 pm.Last one was a very large Buck that stopped in mid field.Could not see all points but we think he is the 10pnt thats been seen prior and traveling with 3-4 Does.Problem is he was 110 yrds off.Good 12g shot but obviously not in 44 mag range.

RE: How many Delaware hunters
I decided to try out the new season and I loved it. It gave me more time to get out into the woods and experience some quiet time. I saw plenty of deer but chose not to shoot because we are trying to let the younger bucks go and retire the big daddy's. I enjoy getting out in the woods whenever possible and now I have yet another reason to get out there.
A bad day of hunting is always better than a good day at work.
