Deer hunting day yields few deer and many mishaps
The opening day of the deer season sees Dean Sweitzer and others fail to bag deer in Allegheny National Forest with archers and hunters recounting mishaps. One hunter wounds a deer and later ends up hospitalized after attempting mercy with a faulty shot. A local hunter shoots a wounded doe but is unsettled by a mis-timed opening hour. Buck sightings are rare with Ken Sheeley reporting a wounded buck to a game warden.
