Default Re: Deer season a bust hurting local economy

So where are all the large QDM racks we have been told are going to be harvested in PA?

I am afraid NY State will soon try and go the route PA went with their restrictions on buck harvest. I for one am not a trophy hunter, and I could care less how large a rack the deer sports on top of his head. All my family wants is a little venison to munch on during the winter.

The deer kill in NY's Southern Tier where I hunt has been down for the past several years also. But, it seems like there is as much of problem with fewer hunters than there is with fewer deer.

It is our numbers that are drastically declining, and have been for several years now. Ask any insurance company and they will tell you that the rates of car deer accidents are going up, not down.
