Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting PA Game Commision- Vote to change opening day.....

OrangeDeablo, I do archery hunt but I gun hunt in the big north woods on public land. I quit bow hunting there cause it is so hard to see a deer not to mention get them close enough to shoot. To make matters worse the deer are even harder to hunt since the wolves came in 25 yrs ago. Those deer are so unbelievably spooky , I dont see how anyone could get them with a bow. They were always a bit more spooky but went into hyper spooky since the wolves came in. In Southern Wisc. where I live and hunt deer , I mostly bow hunt but also gun hunt. The bow hunting is ok at best but by the time gun season is on it's way , those high pressured public land deer are also very nocturnal and hard to even see one in the daytime.
