Pennsylvania has a 3 day JR/Sr doe season where youth hunters & seasoned citizens can take an antlereless deer with a rifle.I took my 13 year old daughter out Saturday morning along with a friend & his 12 year old son. They both scored on nice doe within the first hour in Butler County (Western PA). I set up in the woods in a ground blind with my daughter. She used my single shot Ruger Number 1B in 25-06. The doe came up through an opening 70 yards out & my daughter took her with one shot dropping her in her tracks

The other JR hunter, Mike was hunting a field edge with his dad when a doe group came into view about 75 yards out. He used his dads Reminton 700 30-06 for a perfect heart shot. Another one shot kill. It was a great day afield. To see the joy in their faces made the hunt even more special. The JR season is an outsatnding idea by the PGC (Pennsylvania Game Commission). It does wonders for getting youths interested in our sport. What an enjoyable outing
