I understand your point and agree to a point. I'm not arguing about populations and densities. There are plenty more reasons to oppose expanding sunday hunting. With that said, more doe tags will be filled because of Sunday hunting. It all comes down to greed and entitlement mentality.

No argument here...but I would say that particular door swings BOTH ways.

There is greed and bad arguments on both sides of the debate. IMO however, it is more apparent on the Pro SH side.

Since the early 80's I have hunted the coal regions from Tamaqua to Mount Carmel and we saw 50-60 deer the first day and 15-20 after the first day. Guys that went to Potter saw HERDS of 50 deer. Yeah, your a mountain hunter alright. In the early 70's I went to Clinton with a neighbor and we hunted a power line. There was a heavy frozen snow down and we stayed after dark and watched the power line. I counted over a 100 deer on that power line. I am real sorry you missed out on that time in Pa., but that is life. I did log off a property that bordered Graterford and you bet there are deer there.

Anyway, you are just wrong. The Pa. Game Commission regulates deer kill with the amount of days hunted. When doe was only 3 days, the GC used to add a day or two for really bad weather, kind of like snow days at school. The tags were already out there but the hunters were unable to use them.

Terasec, I know about the clipped wings and dogs. When I hunted Maryland with a bow, a dog club used to camp and run dogs and horses. They trained them with quail that had their wings clipped. I caught a quail once and brought it home. They can't fly with clipped wings. Some guys that were bow hunting got mad and left. The deer were used to it did not care unless a horse came right at them. The quail were kind of screwed whether a horse ran them over or not.

Translation= gunplummer can't figure out how to kill suburban deer, and doesn't want to put in any effort to figure out how do kill a deer in his old haunts. Keep your chin up, I will donate one to you next season. Maybe I will shoot it in the mountains like a "real man", maybe I will shoot it in the burbs like a city slicker. All tastes the same.
