Interesting data reported on 2022 Deer Harvests in PA SF & Parks(See PDF Link below). Sullivan County(Loyalsock State Forest DMAP #2097) where I hunt reported a 19% success rate. Out of 263 permits issued.... 31 kills reported & 190 No Kills. Although mandatory reporting requirement(kill or no kill) still 16% failed to report. I harvested a doe in a regular WMU & reported a no harvest DMAP report. 2022 DMAP SF and SP Harvest Report |

Good luck getting anybody to talk hunting now that the political forum is back up OH well another futile attempt to spark a lil outdoor related discussion for a refreshing change. Mebbie shoulda added that the PGC was considering requiring masks to be worn by hunters.........ONLY N95 type qualifying though!! lol  |

A 19% success rate sounds really poor. Or am I looking at this wrong? I know I didn't even see 5 deer up there between archery and rifle last year so I was one of the 81% that didn't notch my DMAP

For mandatory reporting whether successful or not,the reporting rates still suck.
Actually,a 19% success rate is pretty average.It takes between 1-4 to 1-5 antlerless tags to get a doe killed.

We haven't had dmaps where I hunt since the state ticked off the landowner and he shut down the access through his property. The deer herd is out of hand ever since. Saw 24 deer the last day of rifle last year.

I know I didn't even see 5 deer up there between archery and rifle last year so I was one of the 81% that didn't notch my DMAP I know about half the time I don't even hunt DMAP area where I have DMAP tag for. Mainly buy one for providing add'l hunt area options pendin hpw season plays out(weather, kills etc). This also likely contributes to harvest percentages. |
