Despite the huge difference in herd size, the allocations have not been responsibly reduced and are still nearly a million!

Instead of commenting on this older data, over half of which was while we had a much larger herd and with a goal of reductions till 2004, I’ll simply point out this past years (2010) harvest= just under 309,000 deer. Compare to the numbers above. Does that look like stabilization that was supposed to be the case since 2004? Me thinks not.

Why is the mismanagement occurring? http://www.acsl-pa.org/index.htm

Allot to digest here if you care to look into it. Click on the link and check it out.

If it’s all a waste of time they are sure putting a ton of effort into it. Allot of big college words in the reports and graphs and charts and stuff.

I was trying to figure out if more hunters are staying home? just giving it up.
We are getting to be a bunch of old guys; OA, sore feet and backs,overweight, got no wind left cause we smoke and drink too much. Didn’t see as many of us out there this past season. Heck, felt like I had the place to myself. Many of the camps in the area were empty! Less hunters = Fewer deer taken. just a thought?

Maybe you should have a look at this years buck harvest. 109,000 down from 135,000 last year. Worse yet, down from 6-7 years ago when it was over 200,000!

The herd is in ruins. Thank you Pennsylvania game commission! Idiots.
