2010 Quabbin Deer Hunt Begins

The first 2-day segment of the 2010 Quabbin Controlled deer hunt successfully removed 60 deer from the watershed. Thanks to the more than 500 hunters, DCR staff, EPO's and our Moose survey volunteers who safely covered the 16,000 acres of the Prescott and New Salem blocks of the Quabbin Watershed.

    Wow zero degrees outside. That sounds awfully cold. I guess 45 degrees seems hot to you guys. When I hunt at www.peartreegameranch.com it is warm. Hunting in zero degrees takes dedication, congratulations. I like the warmth.

    It's wise to hold helpful information with you as well as mark lower all you find. Separate proof of a lot of money like large tracks or tree rubs, all the typical sign. A rub line that's revisited each year is obviously worth being conscious to. Within the finish of summer time season the dollars will start rubbing the velvet employing their antlers from time to time within the random manner, but a rub or rub line that's revisited each year is much more in the sign publish that deer leave scent on for other deer. A great guideline is "the higher the tree, the higher the buck." A rub round the sapling or small tree might be whether small or large buck, but a rub round the bigger diameter tree screams large buck as small dollars will not rub large trees.
