Welcome to the site from the NEK of Vt. Tell us a little about yourself 

[oneshott]

Thank you guys.  I live in the southern portion of NH.  I use muzzleloader and rifle.  I would like to get into archery, but that hasn't happened yet.  I got the nickname from a past hunting group because all I used to carry for all seasons but archery was a muzzleloader.  I have hunted mainly NH.  However, I have hunted Vermont and Massachusetts a few times, and two, nine day trips to Pennsylvania.  Thank you for the welcome you nice guys.

Do you hunt southern NH. or have you hunted up around Pittsburg , NH.

[oneshott]

I hunt mostly southern NH.  I have hunted in Pittsburg, but that was when I didn't know what I was doing.  Never seen a deer while hunting in Pittsburg, only while drving just before getting there, probably in Colebrook or Stewatrstown.

Do you guy's have much luck in Pennsylvania

[oneshott]

Yes, many deer sightings in PA.  However they have stiff antler restrictions there. Anywhere from 3 to 4 points required on one side.  Unlike Vermont, I feel they are working there.  If you sit yourself strategically in PA.  You can see more deer in a day, than all season in south NH.  The deer numbers are high and so are the hunter numbers on PA.  They can get rude in the hot areas.  I had a guy tell me to move, when I was at my spot about 90 minutes before he got there.  I know this because I saw him drive up on an atv.  I was down at the bottom of a hill that he drove up on.  The black bears grow huge there also.
PA has had a reputation for small deer.  I did not experience that in the southwest area.  They have tons of food in that area and a lot of public land.  If you ever decide to try it, they have some nice cabins in the state parks that are cheap to split with a few guys and are nice and clean.  You have to apply for doe tags over the late spring and summer for non residents.  That is how their doe system works.
