HUNTERS IN BUNCHES

A recent study of deer hunters using global positioning system technology in Pennsylvania revealed that the vast majority of hunters were bunched in flat areas less than a third of a mile from the road.

The study, conducted in Clinton County by Penn State University, showed that after the first day of the season hunter density dropped to one hunter every eight square miles once one ventured more than a third of a mile from the road. The highest hunter density measured in the study came on the first day when when the density was measured as about 1.75 hunters per square mile.

Maybe this is why you didn't killa smany deer as usual.
