Sunday hunting in PA blasphemy!
Congrats to your grandpa!
I am in eastern PA and it was tough. Opening day we had high winds with not much movement. I was fortnate to score on a nice 6pt. which happened to be bedded down 80 yds in front of me, only I didn't know it. He popped up when 4 doe came in to bed down about 15yds from him. Took the shot and about 10 other doe popped up and took off. Sunday we got light snow and nothing moved. Monday back to the high winds. Not many shots taken and also not as many people out either to get them moving.
I don’t think the people hunt like they used to in PA. I do think all the snow killed off some deer as we didn’t see the numbers like we did in the past.
I can tell you in prior years driving up to the Blue, there would be a line of vehicles in front of me heading up to the PGC parking lots. Now I am pretty much the only truck.
I think it will only get worse as you don’t see the young kids out hunting. The older generations are passing away. We talk about this every year at our camp.
Nice mass on that buck.
