Good Luck This Season: Buck Magnet
P.S. Only Chuck Adams can sit at home and see deer so get into the woods. =;^)

I hope I don't have to repeat that I will tell you all when I am not sure of something I have posted. Be well.

Well i guess i'll get my $.02 worht in
I do agree with the mangement of the deer in Pa. but the way the the Game Commission is going about it way out of this world.

I think that they need to look at other states and the way they have mad a better deer heard. like the mid west.

They didnt get the deer heard built up buy shooting all the does and killing only big bucks.

I know of what Iowa has done to get their heards up and this year for the residents bow hunters whas able to get 4 deer tags.

But few years back they You couldnt get but only one tag a year.

Ive hunted many years back in iowa and gotten many popeand young deer form their.

But the big trouble you have in theis state is your game commission. when i was talking to one at the sports show thei year about the youth and seinior riflr season been while archery season was going on and how close i came to getting shot by some young kid out their. the response was that he felt that archery season shouldnt even take place.
well thats my $.02 worhth .
But i know what ever is put on the books ill still will be out their hunting for that one great hunt.

That seems to be one problem with some of the management people, they want to get rid of bowhunting. What do you guys think of this? I think that it is ridiculous, bow hunting is the only way to have a peacefull day of deer hunting in Pennsylvania.

Good Luck This Season: Buck Magnet

EZZACKLY!
If we wind up with a rifle doe season in october we have only ourselves (Bowhunters) to blame. I bet this October will be our last chance to avoid it by stacking up the does. The close nature of bowhunting could be sold as a good managemnet tool regarding the killing of does while letting button bucks go too!! An earn a buck program would be an immense help but that doesn't seem to have aroused the PGC's interest. ENCOURAGE ALL YOUR BOWHUNTING FRIENDS TO KILL A DOE OR TWO AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE THIS FALL!!!!!

sorry for yelling <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

how about this? Archers are about 1/3 of all hunters. Why not designated archery specific doe tags calculated to generate a kill equall to 1/3 of each county goal. With the lower success rate, there would be plenty of doe tags for the archers willing to put in the time to kill a few in the preferred time slot. Plenty of doe tags for NR's like pinwheel that now get the short end of the stick.
Just thinkin out loud.... could it work??

Man do I spell lousy when I try to type fast!

yes i under stand about iowa being diff. then Pa but what i was gwtting at is the way they are handing the deer heard here like the doe season before archery season
one thing iowa did to solve problem was they gave out what tag u got weather it be doe or buck not every oine was able to get a buck tag
