I live in mn. we hardly have a downword spiral. In fact I have had on any given night 10 - 12 doe and maybe a buck once in a while. I like to watch hunting videos and like they say "Ya we may be set up to the hilt with fancy equiptment and clothing. Set up in prime hunting spots, but you still have to make the shot" I watched the video and an awsome hunter miss two monster bucks. As good as tech. is. I think it all rests on the hunter. If you have time and money you can be good. The hunters that pull their bows out and dont practice will not have good luck.. Archery is a hard sport that requires (at least for me) a close shot, and good hunting skills.In my hunting zone there are 15-22 deer per square mile.
