I'll put it this way , I'll travel 45 minutes to my happy hunting grounds if I want to hunt localy but I'll go all over the state to hunt new area's.

for bowhunting, either like 50 yards from the deck, or just 1/4 mile up and across the street.

When I lived in SD, and when I move back in a month, it is around 15 minutes. Have places that are farther but usually don't hunt them.

In Texas has been around 15 minutes as well.

You never said how far you had to go...
I dont know if that was directed at me, but our family property is a two hour drive.

My closest place is an hour and half, and my own patch is almost 4. Can't wait till the day that I can walk out the door and straight to a tree...........
