RE: Pa hunter numbers, is doomsday really here?
I guess it all depends on what your definition of "buck hunting has never been better" is.If you go by average # of points on those,I might agree but if you go by sheer numbers i'd respectfully disagree.I've hunted the last 41 years in both the big woods and the southwest corner and myself and many of my hunting companions would disagree with your assesment.Better never let those WV buddies of yours go to Ohio or Illinois or they'll need heart medication when they see one of those buck.

ORIGINAL: bluebird2 Just being mad and bitter is a fools life style, its a hunters choice to kill what is legal or to hunt at all,g back and readthetimes dead deer makes his demeaning post and figure for yourself how much deer hunting he really does. |

I can't believe that you can't get any opportunities at 2.5 year old deer if you spend that much time in the woods. My Dad always wants to do the stompin' for us too and he regularly gets nice bucks. He was walking a creekbottom, driving for us on the ridge and a huge 10 point followed a doe to him. We estimated the deer at 4.5 years of age. That was in the big woods public land NC region. He actually gets more when he moves than when he sits.
When was the last time you got a buck BB2? C'mon.....shoot straight and tell us, if you got a buck...would you admit to success on this forum? |

RE: Pa hunter numbers, is doomsday really here?
OK.....When was the last time you got a buck with antlers(not counting Buttons also), that you did not have to kick the antlers off of it to make it taggable?

RE: Pa hunter numbers, is doomsday really here?
ORIGINAL: bluebird2 Are you brain dead or do you just have a very short attention span. I just posted the last buck I shot was a cripple with both back legs broken that i shot as a favor for a local farmer who keeps his land open to hunting. Now if I was a greedy SOB rack hunter I would pay him a few hundred bucks and lease his land , tick off the neighbors and have my own shooting preserve. Instead ,I manage his property for timber production and keep the land open to all that ask permission. |

You guys are making it tough on him now.

RE: Pa hunter numbers, is doomsday really here?
I mean a real buck. A buck you see in the woods and has all it's faculties. Not a lame cripple euthenasia mercy killing.

RE: Pa hunter numbers, is doomsday really here?
Bluebird has clearly stated that he doesn't consider the hunt a success unless he kills. He has clearly stated that he will happily shoot the first button buck that comes by and is upset that he can longer shoot the little juvenile bucks with small antlers.
Sounds like he'd enjoy a high fence preseerve but it's my guess that he'd never part with the $$ for that. Maybe we can take up a collection and buy him some baby chicks to stomp:D |
RE: Pa hunter numbers, is doomsday really here?
ORIGINAL: bluebird2 Maybe if you spent less time trying to undermine scientific deer management you'd learn enough about hunting to actually be able to harvest a deer that isn't crippled or doesn't still have milk on it's lips. |
