I am also inclined to agree that the numbers alone are kind of a wash......Like you say, there are feast/famine pockets. We have that here in MO as well.......

Just another number to toss out there, sorry Scott, didn't think of this one earlier....PA hunters killed 354,390 deer in 2005, and Ohio hunters killed 209,513. Now, those are gun/bow kills, not just bow, but that's a success rate of 33% and 29% respectively.......
