RE: For those that don't think location or numbers matter
Location is key. Obviously the more quality bucks you have on the property the better your odds/percentages are, but still, luck plays a part, homework, having optional stands to hunt different wind directions, shooting skill, keeping cool under pressure etc... If dont do your homework, or know the deers travel routes, feeding and bedding patterns, and cant continually make those high pressure clutch shots your odds will go way down for shooting a big boy even if your property holds several big bucks. I think you have to continually have all of the above to harvest good bucks year after year which Mike obviously does.
