Lanse with all due respect you've never bow hunted in a heavy populated area of hunters. Bow hunting is tough the way it is and the more yahoo's in the woods the harder its going to be in getting your animal. If your sitting in the woods gun hunting its going to be a little easier being you don't need the deer as close. More hunters makes it tougher on bow hunters then it does the gun hunters.

Edit: You would think there would be more hunting accidents as well in high populated hunting areas. Thats not a good thing either!!
