Penn State's view of PGC deer management.

[Adam Helmer]

skeeter,

I am for Sunday hunting. All the malls are openon Sunday as are the amsement parks and some PA liquor stores. Super Bowl is played on a Sunday. I buy a doe tag every year to save a doe's life. I have shot two does in my 66 years on Earth, and both does were badly injured before I bagged them.

So far this season, I saw a 4-point opening day and a doe in my hayfield and both are still calling this farm home. Today I saw the 4-point and two does bedded on Upper Field. I let them alone become the game hogs on adjacent farms will shoot every deer they see.

Many farms nearby have "No Doe Hunting" signs up. I post and keep all the meat hunters off my farm. We PA hunters need to let the deer herd increase to carrying capacity in PA. That starts with NO DOE HUNTING!
