    I used to live near Canton (recent moved back to PA right arcross the border from Negley, Ohio) but when I was out that way locals always suggested Woodbury is the place to start when looking for good public land hunting.

    When was your deer hunting 'hay' day?

    Interesting to see Indiana County mentioned on here lol.....I grew up in Indiana County (this being in the 90's though) and can honestly say after hunting NY, OH, WV, and Northern PA that the deer and turkey hunting up until about 2004 was by far and known the best I have experienced.

    Depending on the bird and his mood that window sometimes is upwards of 30 minutes as I have had birds gobble when its pitch black but yes I have "made the sneak" quite a few times in my days. Few times his posse of hens were between me and him and I didn't know and got busted but most of the...
