I had my DCO Buddy today look into the 1/4 of a Deer today. He called WCO John Pappas of Bucks co who then called the Reading PGC headquarters. He was told you CAN 1/4 a Deer in the woods to get it out. Its must be tagged correctly and the head taken with you along with your meat. The Game Warden can be taken back to the site if he thinks there is foul play. Then he can take DNA to see if its the same Deer.Here's another one to ponder that I don't understand. Why can't you use Bloodhound Tracking Dog's to find your Deer?

I'll bite, too. I would like the option to use a dog to find a dead deer. The book say that we should make every attempt to recover game. But we can't use the best tool there is.
Other states allow it. They must be stupid. Or PA knows something that they don't.

I shot a 8pt on a farm I lease in NJ last November. I was having trouble finding the Deer. I called in Darren Doran who is a licensed Dog Tracker. What a treat it was watching his Dog work. They found my Buck!!!! This is such a great tool for hunters to use when all else fails.I don't get why its not allowed in PA?????? If you hunt NJ and NY and you can't find your Deer give Darren Doran a call 908-331-2041
