There are a lot of considerations/sacrifices when attempting to kill the best bucks that your area has to offer.I am friends with and/or associate with many of the hard core bowhunters in my community.A couple of them I am very close with and one in particular had a reputation for being the best hunter in our community.(he is now deceased)His pursuit of big bucks was clearly obsessive,and he shot many big deer,only one of which was a pope and young qualifier.His success came at a cost,strained marital relationship,next to no relationship with his sons,lack of attention to a business he owned etc.
The point of this is to acknowledge that yes you can be successful in killing the best bucks within your area,but it comes at a cost.If the best hunter that I have ever known has only put one pope and young qualifier on the ground at tremendous personal and business relationship expense,what does that say for the liklihood of those of us who place family first,business and employee's second and our hunting third?
Just about any thing can be accomplished if someone is willing to sacrifice enough! I admire any one who shoots big deer on public land consistently,provided that they have not cheated their families of time and comfort to do so. I am not implying in any way that any one here has done so!
