Urban bow hunting has been my experience for the longest time. Probably most of my hunting experience can be categorized as urban bow hunting. I gotta tell you, I love it!!

I too try to slip in and slip out of my hunting spots. The way I see it the less people know about it the better. Deer hunting can be a very touchy subject in urban America. At least the part I hunt. I hunt outside of Washington D.C. here in Maryland. Most really appreciate what we do, but all it takes is one person to voice their disapproval and you can forget about that “honey hole.” I hate losing those kinds of spots and I also really don’t want anybody to know what I’m doing. Ignorance is bliss. I just assume keep everything very discreet and all is good for the most part.

You really can’t get away from urban hunting in the central part of the state. You can otherwise, but I love the convenience of hunting in my backyard or somewhere else nearby that has a great number of deer. These spots also hold some huge bucks. Major park areas that get very little hunting pressure if any have monster, wall-hanger bucks lurking in them. They are a site to see.

There are other less urban areas that I hunt, but a lot of the deer that we hunt there come from suburban settings. We have a driver’s motor vehicle facility close to one place my buddies and I hunt, and probably twice a year we will have a couple guys go down there and drive the deer from there to us. It is unreal the deer holed up by this DMV. There are never less than fifty deer jumped up from these drives. We usually bag between five to eight deer on one drive.
