Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Question For PA Deer Hunters???

Believe the issue here is that it's hard for those who hunt in areas that still hold a decent amount of deer to imagine what it's like to hunt on public land where the deer herd has been wiped out. DaleK's suggestions for motivating young hunters are valid but, moot when there are very small numbers of deer in the woods. When one can walk for a few hours in a new snow and not cut a single track (ok, maybe one or two) it's not difficult to see how shooting a deer may seem hopeless. Just MHO based on observations over the last 20 years.
