Default RE: Odds of success

Colorado,2005 hunting season stats from CDOW...

-Pronghorn -78% success: over 3 out of 4 succeed
- Deer - 45% success: less than half
- Elk - 23% success: under 1 out of 4 succeed

Thoughts?
I'd say its pretty accurate, alot of things factor into this as well, for example, I had a Cow and Bull tag this year for elk, only filled one tag. I also had a Buck and Doe tag, only filled one there as well. Did fill my only Pronghorn tag though. Then you have my aunt, who we refer to as " The Queen" she show up to be with the family and friends in hunting camp. She had a tag but really only hunted opening day and couple other evening hunts. I'm sure every camp has someone like that. A person that doesnt hunt but goes hunting for the experience.
