RE: Neat Statistics!!!!
I've read the same book (John Eberhart - Bowhunting Pressured Whitetails I believe?). Michigan, PA, WV are high pressure states. It's so bad in Mid Michigan right now that you just can't get away. I see bowhunters nearly every time I go into the woods. It doesn't matter if you're on state land or private land either. I have permission to hunt 2 private spots. One is 20 acreas and five people hunt there. The other is 80 acres and at least8 other people hunt there. Thats why you don't see too many big bucks killed around here.
And if you think its bad in bowseason, you should see Opening Morning of rifle season. The woods looks like a pumpkin patch and sounds like the fourth of July!
