woodsman2230 Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 to an even worse bow season. I went out sat morning early, I was in a really good spot. At about 7:30 I see a person wearing orange start making his way towards my stand. I was hunting the woods behind my house and we have safety zone signs up all the way across the property 150 yards from my house. He walked past the safety zone signs so I climbed down and caught up to him. I asked him if he saw the signs and he said he did. Then I asked him what he was doing and he told me that he hit buck the night before and he couldnt find it. He said that he saw blood for a while then the trail stopped. I asked him if it was a nice buck he told me..."I think it was a little seven point." "you dont know??" (AR is in effect. 4pts on one side) "okay.....well did you hit the deer back a little?" "I dont know" I looked a little for it but then I wanted to hunt some the rest of the day so I left. I dont think he found it. It started pouring so I couldnt hunt the rest of the day at all.I didnt mind the fact that he shot a deer back there its the fact that he wasnt sure how big it was and he had no idea where he hit it. This has been the worst archery season that I can remember. I dont mind the AR but the heard reduction idea is getting out of hand unless you hunt on private property. But Im just glad that I am able to hunt and get out in the woods. I apologize for complaining like this but I just need to let some of this frustration out of my system.

woodsman2230 Posted November 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 Re: A bad end... I thought he might have been because there is a lot of poaching in my area. But I couldnt prove anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbeck Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 Re: A bad end... if you carry a weapon in a saftey zone in Pa. With or without signs, and don't have permission. It is a 450.00 fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
