RE: Pennsylvania deer kills drop
 

Pgc being sued, legislators stepping in, license fee being denied, hunter numbers declining at over double the national average all time low hunter approval, and tree huggers dictating management.... Id say not being content to put up with all that doesnt equate one to being a crybaby. But Id say it accurate that someone whining about the complaint has their head firmly planted up their backside.;)

A few less deer but plenty of good healthy ones to hunt.

Bigger better bucks.

The browse line disappearing in 2F.

Turkeys everywhere.

A slightly smaller punkin army on opening day of gun.

Plenty of places to hunt.

Things are pretty good, I guess we can overlook a few whiners:D

There is no data available to support that claim and you even denied it in the past.

Nothing surprises me anymore! Just surprised they chose that publication and this forum to so called,"come out of the closet."

I can see the same quality bucks by looking at back issues of the PGN from the 70s,80's and 90s. There is no evidence that the 2.5+ buck are any bigger than before ARs.

Blah Blah Blah!!!

We've been down this road before. Anyone with a brain doesnt think that 2.5+ bucks are bigger. Any fool realizes that it's a matter of more 2.5+ bucks on average than before making the average buck bigger and better.
Juvenile bucks are now a smaller part of the harvest as it should be. The average age went up, not the average size for a given age. Either you are trying to mislead folks or you have no grasp of the obvious.

RE: Pennsylvania deer kills drop
 

You're the one that made that claim, not me. Our bucks are not bigger or better than before ARs. ARS simply prevents us from harvesting the smaller buck in all age class.
