I Live in South Central Pennsylvania, the unpopulated park which most of us call Pennsyltucky!😎
Farmland and wooded mountains. Most of my closest neighbors are edible critters.
Long time hunter and rifle hand loader.
I’m pretty “Old School”, live and let live sorta guy.
 
Thanks, gents.
I got fat thumbs so I gotta be careful proof reading.🙁
Freaking auto correct has a habit of changing what I thought I wrote!🤬
I was a longtime member of the 24hr Camp Fire, but the idiots and trolls took over.

I grew up in Bedford County just outside of Pleasantville. Still hunt the Game Lands on Pleasantville Mountain and the bottoms along Dunnings Creek. That’s all private owned and you gotta have permission.
Times, they are a changing!
 
Good to see some Pennsylvanians on here!
Most folks fail to understand that Pennsylvania is two distinctly separate states within one set of borders!😄
You got places like Philadelphia and Scranton, heavily populated areas, and then you’ll find areas like ours that are predominantly farm communities.
I gotta drive a little further to work and to get groceries, but I can load my rifle and hunt from the back deck!
I have my own private range out to 150 yards and I belong to a club that has ranges out to 650.
(At my age I seldom shoot at game beyond 75 or so.)
Once you hit a certain age, you lose interest in killing deer and look for freezer beef!😄

Welcome from the ES of Md
ES I Take it is Eastern Shore?
We drove through there back inthe ‘80s headed for Chinquoteage in Virginia. Saw the ponies swim across the channel. I was 15.
Never hinted outside PA though. Whitetails and small game. Bunnies with a dog and squirrels with a tack driving .22 Magnum. Also dabble with flintlocks in the late season.

Yes, The ES includes Chincoteague and the ponies for sure. The area has grown plenty but is still special if you like to hunt or fish. Inshore, offshore, ducks, geese, deer, it is interesting for sure.
