RE: Odds of success
YoungGun,
You personify the old adage: "It is better to remain unheard and perceived a fool, than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt."
My thoughts:
I say that its all bunk! Your odds are 50/50 on everything....either you're going to get one or not, 50/50 [8D]
Percentage numbers skew things a lot. Take percentages in my home state for Whitetail. They'll say something like 50% succes rate on deer. Well, I am one of those who didn't fill a tag so I'm lowering the number right? What about the three bucks that I passed up, or the dozen does? The bucks were all 4 x 4 's or better in the 120+ range. I certainly could have killed one of those and increased the averages.
