Does only ,whats up with that? Why would Pa. have such a restricted bow season.

The areas w/ extended seasons need doe management. That's why the PGC did it, overpopulation problems.

Well said.:eek:

It does get tiresome that the PGC keeps changing their mind, but bowhunters in these regions only go after bucks and there aren't enough areas that can be gun hunted to effectively reduce the doe population. This allows bowhunters to get out a little earlier and thin the doe herd to get the buck-to-doe ratio in check.

I personally like it, but to each his/her own.
