Fran... Are you seriously trying to tell me there is only one 140 class buck in your whole township?
How could you even determine this? So Ryan must have killed the biggest buck inthetownship he hunts in back to back years..... What's the odds on that one?
So you're saying I'm a statistical anomaly? Or that am I just that dang good? [8D]
Honestly, I know some of the general areas Fran hunts, and he does get screwed in the big buck department. They are fewer & farther bewteen than in the areas I hunt. If I hunted there, my standards probably would not be as high.
My main hunting area consists of a 6 mile rectangular loop that I drive. If I see 2-3 "shooters" (3.5+) in that whole area, I'm tickled. Rarely, if ever are they spotted on the land I have access to over the summer, but they do show up as the rut nears.In that same loop I'll probably see 8-10 2.5 yr olds.
