Initial phase of deer hunts in two Pittsburgh parks goes smoothly
Published: , in Outdoor News
The harvest count in Pittsburgh's first-ever controlled bowhunt is 80 deer as of Dec. 9, when the program was paused for an 18-day break until after Christmas.
Archery began in two city parks – 644-acre Frick and 288-acre Riverview – Sept. 30 and concludes Jan. 27. The 30 hunters chosen in the lottery-based initiative are required to harvest a doe before they target a buck and to donate venison from their first kill to a food-distribution charity.
