My insight is one sided because I choose to hunt traditionally. Hunting is general has become commercialized and all about trophies. 40 years ago putting good quality meat was most likely the main concern with most hunters. Yes education and mangament has made some deer herds massive and produced massive bucks. Look at all the non typical bucks you see now versus then. These land owners are breeding and selling deer like cattle. Hunting today for most hunters is all about the size of the antlers not the feeling of being one with nature. Sitting in a stand over a feeder isnt hunting it is target practice. Hunting is finding the prey and taking them on their terms by out smarting them. With all the scent masking today most hunters do not even care about wind direction. I have hunted all my life and most of it was in the piney woods and swamps. I have went season after season and never saw a deer. Anyway thats my 2 cents worth.
