It is not always a case of luck.If you are seeing a lot of deer you are not unlucky.If you miss shots it is not because of bad luck.I have been accused of being lucky myself because the bucks that I have killed in recent years were all large mature bucks.I have however gone without killing a deer for a couple of years because I passed up as many as 20 or 30 bucks in a year because I only get one general tag and none of the bucks were as large as I wanted.I don' t regret passing up bucks and not filling a tag because I hunt for the challenge and not just to kill a legal deer.If you are seeing large numbers of deer and your shooting skills are good you will take deer reguardless of whether or not you are lucky.
