I'm not sure if you think 6 hunters on 120 acres is too many or not many. In any case we don't move from our blinds all day long. We walk in as a group going by the stands along the way and drop off so no one fouls up another's hunting by coming in late. We have the stands possitioned so that no bullets will (or can) hit another's stand (rolling hills). It's a fair walk between stands. 120/6 = 20 acres per hunter. That's alot of land IMHO. And after opening day weekend there is rarely more then four hunters on the land as some have to work farms or jobs. And my brother and I are two of those four.
Now go on public hunting grounds in central or south Wisconsin and you'll have a blaze orange hunter within 100 yards or less of you in any direction. I've had branches clipped off right next to me by some idiot opening up with a semi-auto on a deer he can't see. I don't hunt public anymore in Wisconsin. That does not apply up in the northern (Nicolet etc) forests as that is a huge area. (Of course the wolves, cougars and coyotes have killed all the deer up there too)....
