RE: Bow hunting a golf course....
when i took my bowhunter ed class, there was a guy in there that hunts a golf course every year. he said he gets between 20 and 25 deer every year. he said it was literally walk in shoot one, dress it and take back to the truck, then go back in and get another all day long.

I love hunting golf courses. I have access to 4 courses. In fact everytime I've ever played golf, I do more scouting then anything else. Start with the maintance guys because yes the deer really do cause a lot of damge on the course.

I work at a golf course here in Pa.! Federal land borders it along with private property on both sides! As far as damage to the course, a few rubbed trees and flowers being eaten is it!The golfers do far more damage!! You can get pretty close to the deer in a golf cart or while you are playing during the summer! The owner of this golf course lets his rich buddies who rifle hunt come in! They drive around on there four wheelers more than anything! The deer are hunted heavy with public land and all the private land around it being hunted by the landowners! It seems when deer season opens you rarely see any deer on the course during the day!!
