PA guys, how was your deer season?
 
Without turning it into an AR/HR/Alt dead horse beating. How did everyone do this year?

I zipped in my pursuit of a rack but saw the guy I was after on the last day of late archery. He'll be better next year! Got some does for the freezer and helped both of my boys get a doe each. Not a bad season.

How about you?

I did pretty good, tagged out by the first saturday of archery season. No complaints here.

I only shot one this year, a buck that lost its horns(late season). But i had my best regular archery season yet , i saw 8 legal bucks and had chances at two of them but screwed up. By the way, 6 of those legal bucks were on Gamelands in Columbia county. So i cant complain, i'm just excited for next year

I only rifle hunted PA this year, but I saw 3 mature bucks in Huntington County, and probably 10 does a day. No shots at the bucks, but someone else got one of them and it is probably 120" 8 point. My friend and I decided not to shoot does till 12pm on the first day and I killed one at 12:15. ;)

I also hunted in Bradford County for a short bit, however only saw does. I already had 3 deer in the freezer at that point between Vermont archery and rifle hunting and PA rifle, so I spent more time visiting family then I did in the woods. I did see about 10-15 does a day there though, and my father saw 2 100"+ 8 points chasing a doe when he was in the barn the day after I left...........[:@] They will be there next year though. It seemed that everyone I know in these two counties did pretty good.

I had my best deer season in P.a this year.It was my 3rd year living and hunting in P.a.I killed a nice 12 point and a fat doe.Also saw a couple other shooter bucks and all this occured on game lands in Fayette county.I have to give all the credit for this years success to long hours spent shed hunting the places I hunted.

Great year, passed several legal bucks and took a 3.5 year old the last week of archery. He'd scored in the upper 120's but was busted on his right side....

I agree with that i live and hunt in Somerset county and i think the whole deer population is down around here everyone hunts and most people are greedy so the deer are really hurting! [:@]
