The loudest I hear anyone complaining is you.From people stealing your stuff to killing all the deer,it's no wonder you left.Glad you're happy now.

How many of the doe you killed so far were on TL? |
Had two doe at a pond tonight 62 yards away. Usually deer that hit the pond come right on by my tree but tonight it was just not to be.
Got an interesting show for my time tonight. Had what I first thought was two chipmunks chasing around my tree but when they tangled, I heard a tiny snarling sound unlike any chipmunk or squirrel. I grabbed the binos and it was a weasel tangling with a really big chippy. Even stranger was that the weasel ran off and the chipmunk was definitely torn up bad. I checked him with the binos again and his hindquarters were torn and bleeding and he didnt seem to have any use of his left hind leg. He was still alive but he literally dragged his back half as he crawled away. Of course when I got to my truck, dad had to tell me that three deer were grazing in his yard 20 feet from my truck an hour before dark. |
So, were you hunting on your Dad's property or were you hunting on your Dad's neighbors property?

Dads ground. On the back corner of his 5 vast acres. Not posted nor is the neighbors. Why?

Forgot all about the season. Usually I see cars parked around , but didnt see any this year to remind me the season opened.I was in WV anyway grooming my heard of 70 deer. Not hunting just watching. I will take one buck later in WV rifle season. Dont want to be a hog. I am disabled and have not got my WV X-bow permit yet. That 1800 dollar x-bow will pobably rot in the corner never use it again.. certainly boring hunting in Pa compared to WV anyway. I did not even buy a Pa license this year. I will let all of you slaughter the doe,and according to the this report anyway ,thats what seems to be happening again. Pa hunters need something to complain about. Hammer the doe Whopee.

most of us dont hunt to much until 2 weeks before archery ends .mostly you have doe hunters out now trying to fill freezer. its not so easy to do that also .many dont tag their deer now and are very secretive and its hard to get anything out of most.i have not heard of 1 person who got deer but i see the cardboard boxes heading into homes.
