RE: What is most important---Skill, Luck, or Land??
I' m shocked at the number of replies that rely on " LUCK" to be of so much importance. If you rely on luck you' re not doing your homework. If you' re doing your homework and scouting and following some basic rules of scent control(even if your only scent control is hunting the wind) luck has very little to do with your success. Luck does account for some of deer and often monsters, but relying on it will account for a LOT MORE failure. It' s great if you have a prime piece of property as you have more choices. BUT, skill and diligence will allow you to make the most of what you have. I' d rather be GOOD anyday. You' ll eat more regular. The luckiest of hunters doesn' t consistantly score and score and score.... but the true hunter will.
