Sounds like a reasonable number. But, I wonder how the heck anyone can even come up with a stat like that. Whoare they polling? What about the thousands of bowhunters not being accounted for in that stat? It would be an interesting stat to see if EVERY bowhunter was accounted for. Seems like a shot in the dark number to me.
A wise man once said, "48% of all statistics are made up on the spot."

Interesting, I'm going to check my logs

OK last three years bowhunting stats.
31 hunts- 3 deer(and I saved a tag for gun season)

26 hunts- 4 deer

23 hunts- 5 deer

I'm hunting too much this season. Been out 9 times, with only 1 deer down

Good, Im about due then. Been out 11 days.I did take a Doe on the first day but Im hunting for horns now. Its been in the 90s the last 8 days, full moon, has led to very little buck sighting the last 10 days. Hopefully this front will change things for the better.

Our friend went 16 years without killing a deer. He shot at them, but stupid things like hiting grapevines or somthing always seemed to be the ending to his stories. 16 years and he still hunted every year. I have more respect for someone who doesnt give up for 16 years than i do for someone who easliy shoots 10 in a season.

That's fitting, I'm well below average. And I thought I'd hit rock bottom....I get to feel even more like crap. [:@]
