I am thankful that I live 10 minutes away from the 4 bow hunting only counties here in WV. The deer population is low but the buck to doe ratio is 2:1. With all 4 of these counties being bow hunting only the bucks get the chance to fully mature and most die of old age. I just hope that the DNR doesn't fool around with these 4 counties and open any kind of gun season. If they do they will ruin probably the best big buck, bow hunting only on public land hunting in the US. If you keep the orange army at bay, you can see bucks like in the trail cam photo below on 100% public land! It's amazing how big these mountain deer can get if you just let the bucks live long enough to mature.
