2 whole deer
 
2 whole deer taken in gamelands 52. A button and a doe.Around 60 hunters on the some 2000 acres throuhout the day. Myself and friends spent the day at the parking lots.We were not hunting.Just interviewing the hunters. 7 seen deer ,2 taken ,3 missed. Gamelands 52 is in southern Berks county, 5c area where 94,000 doe tags were given. WOW ,super day.Yes I know what we did maybe was"nt 100% correct,But pretty close.Spent 14 hours doing it. You all come to the conclusion.I am sure The Pa game commission will say the hunters were just lazy and stupid.

Sorry forgot that excuse.Deer go invisible when they get wet.

Let me get this straight. There are very few deer and there were 60 guys trying to kill them. If there truly is a unhuntable deer population there, WHY WOULD THEY WANT TO KILL THE FEW THAT ARE LEFT???? Just because they have a tag?? I bet if there were two deer left on this earth, a buck and a doe, someone would kill them if they had a tag!! Than blame it on the PGC that the last two deer are dead. . There is no doubt in my mind

Amen brother. We are very very fortunate to have an abundance of land, habitat, wildlife etc. in this country and the freedom to bear arms and hunt. I completely understand that many hunters do not have the resources to travel all over and are mostlyrestricted to hunting in their county or town. However, there should be no expectation that a government agency is obligated to control/populate/regulate every acre of public land with an abundance of shootable game.

Live, hunt and enjoy every moment.

Who is asking for an abundance of shootable game? Most hunters would be more than happy with the number of deer that habitat can support, rather than the number that will allow regeneration of preferred commercially valuable timber.

Saw a grand total of 3 does in a day and a half of hunting in 5C. No one shot a buck that I am aware of in our general area and there was very little shooting.

I seen an elk in 2G on monday. If I didn't look 3 or 4 times it would of been my biggest deer ever if I pulled the trigger. LOL I seen 3 deer in 2 days and 2 of them was shot by my friends during our drives. 3 deer from about 7 drives. This was in 2G and 2E.
