Head north just over I80 and you'll have the woods to yourself after the first day.I imagine the public lands will get hit alot harder the closer you are to Altoona.2G is over 40% public land,much of it being remote and rugged but there's still plenty of deer to be found without having to walk for miles.

Fat Lady may have sung, butCol. S and the roadshow company are stillon the march:

"Unified Sportsmen visit Bradford County

On Friday evening, Feb. x, 2007, at 7 P.M. at the Ulster Fire Hall, Jxx Sxxxxxx, representing the Unified Sportsmen of Pennsylvania, will present a program for the sportsmen of Northeast Pa. regarding the Game Commission's "Deer Management Program." Sxxxxxx is the host and producer of the "Oxxxxxx Txxx Nxxxxxx", a nationally syndicated, outdoor radio program and a well-known outdoor columnist. The Ulster Fire Hall is located behind the large Dandy Mini-Mart on Main St. (Rt. 220). Coming north on Rt. 220, turn right at the time & temperature sign and going south, turn left at the time and temperature sign. For more information, call Txx Kxxx at 570-xxx-xxx."

Sure hope someone in the audience doesn't spoil the combination enlightenment/membership recruitment tourspiel, by asking themwhat happened during their court foray. Wonder how a guy whohas always claimed no affiliation with this group, gets to represent them in public forums/membership drives?

Sounds almost like some sortaconspiracy isafoot.

I can easily make that statement for the entire ANF as well as SGL 24, Buzzard Swamp and all of the Kane Hardwood property (always open to the public) in the ANF area

Maybe you can have one of your friends in the PGC look up my harvest report cards.That info is available.I know it's been years since you sent one in John.

BT in no way am i calling you and Doug liars about not seeing many hunters. im sure its true.. im saying in my area puplic land gets hunted very hard all season.

RE: The fat lady has sung in PA
 

You have to remember that thre's thousands and thousands of acres of public land around here and a relatively small human population.There's no way hunters can have that much of an impact on the herd around here.Most camps are emty during deer season and it's rare to see another hunter after the first two days.Like I said,I'm sure that isn't the same situation you see around Alttona where there's more people and less public land.

RE: The fat lady has sung in PA
 

It all depends where you hunt.Most of the NC has less hunters today.On the other hand the SGL's near my home are absolutely packed in rifle season.Orange everywhere.I wouldn't even think about hunting that place!

RE: The fat lady has sung in PA
 

Less hunters in deer season that is.As for turkey and bear I'm seeing more hunters then before in the NC.
