    Does anyone have a recommendation on an outfitter in these areas? Been looking the past couple hours a couple seem decent others not so much. Couldn’t find anything in Pennsylvania without a fence. Looking for under 3k. I’ve been to Kansas 3 years and Ohio last year. Those were reasonably priced never over 2500. The drive to Kansas sucks from NY. Thanks

    If your thinking about hunting Pa just keep driving through till you get to Ohio. A lot of good hunting in Pa, but I know of no outfitters, the quality of deer in Ohio are better and there are several reputable outfitters.

    I can't imagine anyone paying to hunt in Pa. Been here all my life. I'd say that unless you can somehow access a private no fence farm, paying money to hunt wouldn't be wise. As mentioned, Ohio is a good destination.

    I’m more interested in Ohio also my cousin was curious about Pennsylvania because he has farther to travel. Must say though my brother in law lives 10 minutes from Williamsport and there are some giants down there.

    There are giant bucks in every state, it's a matter of how many. :biggrin:

    Ohio sucks too. Keep driving West.

    Trying to avoid driving west but thanks for the advice. Looks like I’ll be hunting close to home this year anyway. Funny thing my wife and daughter ask me why I go on these trips when I’ve killed my biggest bucks in NY anyway.
