Here's my thoughts on the original topic. A person who shoots 10 deer a year gains very little in experience over a guy who shoots 1 a year(but hunts the whole season) except in tracking deer and learning thier reactions to being shot. Other than that, time in the woods is the experience factor in my opinion. Not so much piles of dead deer. Now you give me a guy who's tracked and found a 100 deer, vs a guy who's done so for 5, and I want the 100 deer guy on a tough track.
No rybo....you didn't read the whole post. My premise was the guys who are in the 1 and2 tag states may tag out early....and the guy who has unlimited tags can hunt the entire season. A lot of people stated time in the woods. Many stated animals observed....animals passed on.....but nobody gives much credit to the guy taking a few more deer.
Interesting...
but if both hunter a and b put in equal time, work, sightings, passings, and the ONLY difference is the number of deer killed.
i say they have equal hunting experience, but hunter b definately has a leg up when it comes to tracking.
OK....
I'm confused. Here you are agreeing with tsoc, yet it seems that what he trying to say,is the exact opposite of what you've been trying to get across.
goos....he gave a great answer to a question I asked. I wasn't trying to get across anything. He gave an EXCELLENT answer. I put forth scenarios and asked for your thoughts.
