First PA Late Cow Season!
Another first for PA is the addition of the Late Antlerless Season held in January of 2020. A new set of challenges were before us with the possibility of the harsh and unpredicable PA winter weather and difficult access to hunting areas, but it was fortunate that the weather was mild and most of 29 tags
Another first for PA is the addition of the Late Antlerless Season held in January of 2020. A new set of challenges were before us with the possibility of the harsh and unpredicable PA winter weather and difficult access to hunting areas, but it was fortunate that the weather was mild and most of 29 tags were given out were filled. Three lucky guys who drew tags in zones 10, 12 and 14 hunted with Trophy Rack Lodge and harvested their cow elk.
