Default RE: Pros & Cons of YOUR hunting area

Pros:
A lot of deer
Potential to grow good size deer
No rifle hunting
Close to home/work
Very bowhunting friendly
Land owners very good people

Cons:
A lot of hunting pressure
A lot of deer, but many are does/1.5 year old bucks
Shotgun hunting
Very small properties
Surrounded by Posted/Refuge/otherwise inaccessible land that deer stick to when pressured
Deer are not given opportunity to reach potential
Tresspassers
Poachers
Have to watch to not offend landowner's neighbors
Dogs walkers/joggers/mountain bikers/party kids/dirt bikers/meth heads/various other types of pressure
Other hunters not always considerate (i.e. they will try to sabotage your hunt)
