30 deer per acre..... ain't no friggin way.....

I think you mean 30 deer per square mile..... think about how big an acre is..... a man with a compound bow could almost stand in the smack middle of an acre and ethically take deer at either end.... ALMOST.... with a shotgun/slug or smoke pole.... no problem. Might want to check that figure....

VA was in the upper middle, which for a state that isn't overwhelmingly large I thought was pretty good. 9th in Resident hunters... 17th in spending.... I thought it odd to look at California which as half as many hunters as VA, but over twice the spending.....
