MD is pretty bad for the pumpkin crowd. First, there's two, early 3 day MZ seasons in late October-just as the early rut is starting. Then there's an early shotgun day--supposed to be for kids under 16--right on the peak day of the rut. Then there's the two week shotgun season, followed a week later by two weeks of muzzleloader season, followed another week later by two more days of shotguns. After all that, the deer that are left are extreemly skittish, nocturnal and very hard to hunt with a bow.
