What I can see happening is mule deer will go state wide draw by unit specific or block units for sure. Mule deer are getting pounded a many units going over quota. But what I fear is coues will stay OTC with caps and with them being low success and high quotas they will not cut the amount of OTC tags and it’s gonna put an enormous amount pressure on them. Like everyone has said it’s more about money so they will figure out how to keep those funds coming in. Even if coues went to draw for archery as well they will offer so many tags again because of low success/high populations that it’s gonna create a lot more pressure on them. If archery coues goes to draw I would guarantee southern units have hundreds of leftovers and even if people have no interest in coues they will pick up a tag just to go hunting.

Whats all that green stuff, welcome back and congrats

I would be willing to bet half the archery and rifle deer kills are not reported. I am in favor of a unit specific archery tag with a quota, not a draw. A draw for the specific units to aquire the tag that doesnt affect the rifle draw and points would be ok. X amount of tags whether quota is met or not. The bottlenecking of archery hunters as the units close is fning ridiculous. The desert deer need a break for sure. All of the above mentioned plus the poachers are still rampant around the farming communities and freeloaders squatting in the desert and forests. My .02

Don't forget we wound more then we kill.

So many things going on that are affecting deer numbers. Predation, Drought, technology, commercialization of hunting, loss of habitat, shooting dinks, 1000 yard shooters, dept issuing too many tags along with other things not mentioned. This OTC archery reporting has opened my eyes as to how many animals are being killed and its kind of shocking. As an outdoorsman and a conservationist I think we need to have some serious conversations on how to help our big game animals. Especially our mule deer. They need our help before its too late.

All F&G cares about is money. They don't care about the animals at all. Things will change when they see it hitting their pockets. Every unit has hunts to the max, good luck finding mature animals in any unit, it's getting tougher each year. I feel horrible for my kids and their kids. Seeing what my dad and his dad had for hunting opportunity and quality in the past compared to now is rough. Add 20 more years from now and you will be lucky to shoot anything with antlers. Have you hunted deer in western NM? Thats what AZ is going to. Hunt 12 days to maybe see a dink. I spent some time in the 37's this archery hunt. I've never seen that many people there in January. There is 5x the amount of hunters there was just 2-3 years ago. We are headed in a bad direction. Time for a draw across the board, cut these deer a break, they need it.

Where exactly in PA?

This is disturbing! Ans should be brought to more people’s attention! If they have to cut tags waaaay back or eliminate seasons for a few years then do so!
