JOE M. 6 PT.

Opening of the Pa. deer season was short for Joe M.
At 8:30 a.m. on opening day, this 6 pt. made the mistake of walking in
front of his cross hairs.

BUTCH P.

Butch harvested the 2nd camp buck (a 5 pt.) of the week on the 1st Wednesday of deer season.
It was the first deer he saw during the week.

CUZ CHUCK G.

My cousin Chuck harvested this beautiful 8 pt. with a 20in. spread the 1st day of the Pa. Deer season. This was the second buck he saw that day. Luckily the 1st one did not present a shot for him.

NO BEAR YET

Doug A., Jim F., Joe M., and myself headed to camp for the Archery and Rifle Pa. bear season.
No one harvested a bear this year, but Doug did have 1 at 25 yards as he was leaving his stand with his bow. It was after legal shooting hours but it was a thrill for both the hunter and the hunted.
Doug and myself were also entertained by a nice 10 point buck that would cross the creek every morning. Doug managed to get a small video of the buck as it passed at very close range. I was hoping to get a shot at the buck during the upcoming deer season.
