RE: Article on PA hunting
ORIGINAL: germain I haven't posted for awhile so I'll chime in. I'm lucky enough to have two tracts of private land to hunt here in Lancaster county.The SGL's here are pathetic and I'm done hunting them. As for our camp in the NC again lucky enough to hunt on private land with most of it being open to hunting.However there's just enough posted properties to keep a decent number of deer around. The state forest around our camp is pathetic within a 45 minute drive in any direction.I'm talking about deer. I feel for you guys stuck on public land and advise you to seek some private land or get a lease cause it aint going to get better. Some will say I'm being negative but I tells it as I see it. hey ,stop that you are acting to much like me:D |

"Davie Crocket's flintlock in muzzleloader season.....but we gotta still carry 200 year old technology"
nothing funner than getting one with the old "flinch-lock" in fact I think I am more accurate with a bow than muzzle blaster, but just let the deer get close enough for powder burns... plus when they miss fire they work even better as a club ;) |
RE: Article on PA hunting
In all my years hunting, my bow has always "gone off" when I wanted it to;)
Isn't it funny how whitetails stand and stare at that white smoke cloud from the pan of a flintlock for exactly one second less than it takes to reprime and fire again? |

How's the hunting been for you? It's been a little slow. I was out several times for the early do only season in 2B and saw plenty of young bucks and one possible shooter but no shot opportunities at does. Had some bucks in since regular season opened but theye were small or came in atO. dark thirty. I did finally manage to let the air out ofa doe this past week. We were OUT of venison. Taking the kids up to camp next week for early muzzy/ kids doe season and then I'm off to Illinois the folowing week. I'm getting great reports on lots of nice bucks on our lease out there We spent a few bucks and planted over 30 acres in various food plots and the deer are piling in from the adjoining properties. |

i went out grouse hunting today.
i forgot it was early muzzleloader opening. i swear there was more hunters out today than first day of regular deer season. i heard about 5 shots from 8 am to noon. i had doe standing along rd as i was hunting culverts,i bet 6 vehicles with muzzleloaders ready went by and never saw that doe,they were looking at me and dog and did not look to left. after awhile, i coughed real loud:Dand that doe left in hurry. 1 truck said they saw 1 deer all morning riding and next said they saw 7.`others looked at me like i was nuts to be out in woods with dog during deer season. on privateland ,i heard that over 40 shots were heard at 8 am area,i never knew they could load those in-lines that fast, they did. neighbors called the police because shooting was real close to our homes. well, there went my 5 deer that were in my yard.:( why do some hunters have to be unsportsmanlike and hunt pet deer near your homes,it cant be challenge.[:@] like shooting the ladys geese up the street last month. what fun is it to shoot a tame goose?:eek: |

get any grouse?

RE: Article on PA hunting
I hunted 5C today and didn't hear a single ML shot and didn't see another hunter. The PGC brags about increased hunting opportunity ,but with a decreased herd it is really not abenefit . it just means fewer hunters hunting fewer deer for a longer time period with lower harvests.

ORIGINAL: germain get any grouse? no, toby flushed 1 grouse and 2 woodcock. i did not see 1 acorn today here in clinton county/centre county on rt144. 2 years ago grouse hunting was great, now not so good.. germain, you would not believe the shots i just heard at 9;45pm coming from large private property near my home.around 11 shots. i have not heard that before at night. i bet, just guess that those doe took a big hit tonight on that property. MEAT is driving hunters nuts, right now. well, i will have to call the WCO again on monday.:eek: |
