Birthstone Rings Jeweler Reports from the Com- mission’s deer examination stations which were held during the first week of the buck season and which are now closed, substantiated the fact that hunter success has been good. A total of 1711 deer had been checked at the two stations located at Shohola Falls and Interstate 80 near Mifflinville. This is a considerable increase when compared with the total of 1220 deer checked during the 1971 season. The heaviest deer was an eight point, 7% year old buck taken in Bradford County which - weighed in at 179 » lbs. Largest racks were a number of 10 pointers taken in various counties. The oldest deer checked were three 7' year-old deer taken in Luzerne, Bradford and Clinton Counties. The smallest deer was a 62 1b. spike ibuck, age 1 1» years, taken in Pike County. Lincoln Lang, game com- the deer checking stations, stated that cooperation by sportsmen was excellent in this program, which is essential to sound deer herd management.
