Re: 🦌 Changes for 2021-22 hunting season
Could it simply be that there was traditionally a lack of human invasion on Sundays into the deer woods? Follow any archery hunting and you will hear guys talk about the "October lull". There isn't any biological reason that trail cams stop seeing deer that have been regular visitors or that hunters stop seeing deer. It's caused by hunters invading the woods. The deer know that we are among them. Guys make this worse by not hunting the wind, smoking cigarettes, yelling, walking their dogs, walking through bedding areas during the day etc.....Most people do "better" on private property because the deer go undisturbed.

This is an interesting study done by Penn State. Note that the buck hides during deer and bear seasons.

Re: 🦌 Changes for 2021-22 hunting season
You're correct, my mistake. Game land does mean 'game land.' You've changed my opinion on that. I live near Blue Marsh, a large tract of Army Corps of Engineers land adjacent to PA state game lands. Hunting on both and the borders are 'blurred' for sure.

Re: 🦌 Changes for 2021-22 hunting season
I (rifle) shot my first deer, a ten pointer, with a lit cigar going. I shot many more while smoking a cigarette. There's too much mythology on deer intelligence.
There are two kinds of guns. Those I have acquired, and those I hope to.

Re: 🦌 Changes for 2021-22 hunting season
Same here. I put cigarettes in the crotch of a tree while taking a shot. But, like dogs, they learn.
