I have to laugh about this one. "Deep Woods". How many times have you heard a hunting story inwhich the guy says he either "hiked" back into the woods about 1-2 miles or how he had to drag the deer about a mile? Has anyone ever walked a mile? A mile is ALOT farther than you realize. It's not like driving a car. Even after scouting, stalking or whatever doing in the woods on a hunting trip, you'ld be very surprised at how much you had walked but yet so short of distance.
Except for NC PA, if you walk in 2 miles, you will walk into hunters from the other direction, or cross a road. How about another old theory?
