Just wondering if there are any Acorns this year in Central PA?? If so, are they still up or starting to fall already? Large or small? Last year was pretty bleak and the deer were in the fields and farmlands instead of their usual spots, so curious as to how this year is. Thanks for any info. Pinwheel 12

Thanks Darkhollowarcher! I hunt Centre County and that hurricane or whatever it was last year raised heck with what mast crop was there, so the deer were "down low" on grass. Just trying to plan ahead a bit for this year. Thanks again, have a great season! Pinwheel 12

Any updates on the acorn crop?? "What it look like?"

PA Hardwoods

Hey Pinwheel 12, that's cool you hunt so close, infact Closer than you think. I do the majority of my hunting just off of route 220 just ouside of Julian, on a farm going up Steele Hollow Road. which is just down from Marthas Furnace. Maybe when you come down for the season we could get together and kick a few back. As for the Acorn Crop, it is patchy. Some trees are producing very well while others are not, Probably due to the ridiculus amount of rain we have had this year. I was out the other night moving some stands and really didn't hear or see any falling yet. But the deer I saw looked very healthy, but they were heading for the farm fields. Well good luck this season and drop me aline when you head down this way, I would love to get together and put a face with the name on this board.

PAHardwoods--

Thanks for the info---yep, you are not far from where we hunt at all, and from the sounds the deer are on about the same feeding pattern they were last year due to the spotty nut crop---this helps alot with our strategy and saves time when we get there so thanks again! We are staying up near Black Moshannon on 504. I will be sure to give you a PM before we come down so we can meet, that would be great-- we have four of us going this year--- been going for many years and have only missed a couple. It's a great vacation time for me in some beautiful country. Pinwheel 12
