Pa. archery season

[270 bdl]

So far I've only seen one legal buck. Saw five different bucks yesterday. One six point I have seen twice. Bleated him on monday. Rattled him in yesterday. Big deer , has the roman nose and pot belly. Must be an old guy in his decline. He isn't legal btw. Couldn't go today. A guy was supposed to come this morning to buy my motorcycle. Ended up he couldn't make it. Anyways I had house and property stuff to do, so I couldn't hunt. Can't go again until monday. The rut seems to be starting though. Getting down to the wire.

They have a bunch of "must be 4 points on one side" AR WMU's.

Has to have 3 on the main beam, Eye guard doesn't count

Has, to be a 8 point

It can be a half rack with the other side missing, as long as it has 4 points on one side.

Awww, ok strange, rule

What does the mast crop look like out there this year?

That sucks. Hope you are feeling better soon.

Thank you. Got tested on monday. Been in abject misery since. Feeling better today, hopefully I've turned the corner. The worst was the body aches.

Hope you’re feeling better. Took me about two weeks to feel better, I did hunt afternoons most days while I had it.

None really. The doctor was going to prescribe ivermectin. They called me two hours later and said too much time has passed for it. So I'm taking mega doses of vitamin d3 zinc and vitamin c. Seems to be helping

 

[longbow]

I got the monoclonal infusion, ZPAC, and steroids. I’m 58, wasn’t taking any chances, and I was not vaccinated. How old are you?

 

[270 bdl]

61. Doctor told me I didn't meet the criteria for the infusion

Actually it is a three up rule in some areas. Use to be 4 on a side till too many illegals were being shot.

It is still 4 points on one side required in 5 wmu's. It is just different wording, because the brow tine does not count as a point. However, the vast majority will have a brow tine.
