Yes and no.

Depends on who the hunter is and on what sort of property they're being put on.

If Jeff were to hunt Troy's (Shed33) woods out here in Idaho, I doubt he would have as much success as he has had so far on the property back home. The terrain differs greatly. The size of the woods being hunted is vastly different. The deer are more spread out out here on the public land than they are in Jeff's woods.

Give him several years and his success would likely increase.

If the concentration of deer is high, as it is in Jeff's woods, I think a lot of hunters would have similar success. Put someone who is used to high numbers of deer on a small parcel of land onto a large parcel of land where the deer are less concentrated and I think that hunter may have a difficult time tagging out on a mature animal.

[Jeff, I only use you as an example and am in no way trying to take away from the success you've had recently. ]
