    Default Newbie looking for a place to hunt deer

    I'm middle-aged, but just got into hunting a couple years ago. I live in York. For the past two years, I was going to a private place in Drumore (Liberty Hollow Hunting), where the owner would take me out and show me the ropes. I got a doe each time.
    I was planning to go again this year, but they seem to be having some management issues; I'm not sure they are even still in business. (They don't respond to emails or phone calls.)
    Can anyone recommend a small private landowner within reasonable distance of York, who'd be willing to take me out on his land and serve as my "guide" for a one-day deer hunt, for a reasonable fee? I'm not looking for a trophy and don't want to pay "trophy hunt" prices; I just want to learn some more about hunting, and bag a deer.
    Probably a tall order, but I was really looking to go 3 for 3, so I thought I would ask.
    Thanks.

    East or West York?
    I am in Columbia and there are several local places you could hunt.

    I live in East York but either direction would be fine, and Columbia would be ideal.

    Look on google maps for State Game Lands (SGL). They are each numbered (SGL 139, SGL 25 etc)

    Most people aren't going to share good hunting spots on a public forum, FYI.

    Thanks to all who have replied. I'm actually more looking for some private land where someone can accompany me. I'm not quite at the point where I want to head out by myself.
