I live in Allegheny Co. and will probably hunt in Washington Co. simply because you can't hunt with a handgun here. How about you sir?

Hi guys. I will be hunting in Mifflin Co. (Near my home) on opening day and then my son and I will be heading to our family camp in Potter Co. for 3 days of hunting in the mountains.

Probably heading to Chester Co. (with a shotgun of course)for opening day. My daughter has a doe tag for 5C. It's her first year with a junior license. The rest of the week, I'll be in Lebanon or schulkill county, carrying the 44.


I wish I was as good as i think I am!!!

Lucerne County here. Long time handgun hunter. For many years I used a scoped Super RedHawk in .44 Magnum. Last year I got back into T/C Contenders and used a 7-30 Waters to take a deer.

This year, for bear and the first week of deer season, I'm probably going to be using the SRH with 300gr XTP's because in 3D, I can still shoot bears during the first week of deer.

If I'm not using the SRH, I'll be using the T/C in 7-30 Waters loaded with 139gr Hornady SST's.
