426.0. "Turkey Mt, VT info wanted." by BAGELS::MONDOU () Tue Aug 01 1989 10:36

    I am looking for Vermont info for the coming
    deer season.
    
    I am particularly interested in info on accomodations
    in the Londonderry and Windham area, and hunting conditions
    in the area of Turkey Mountain.
                                           
    Have never hunted in Vermont but I hear conditions are improving.
    
    Thanks,

426.1General condition improvement...BTOVT::REMILLARD_KWed Aug 02 1989 11:3517
    
    I can't speak of the area you are planning on hunting, but I can
    comment on the "improving conditions".  In my opinion that is a very
    accurate statement.  Not only in number of deer, but the health of
    the deer as well.  There is a pile of data that shows reproductive
    rate, antler beam, average weight, etc. are all on the climb.  We have
    had a few "mild" winters (or so the F & G dept reports), which
    certainly helps.  I think the snowfall is so different from area to
    area that it's really hard to judge.  
    
    It might be worth the trip (highly recommended) up to the area, do some 
    scouting, and getting permission from the landowners.
    
    Good luck,
    
    Kevin
