You gotta think about bowhunters as a WHOLE.....not just die-hard guys like in this forum. As a WHOLE.....I don't have a hard time believing it. I was reading on another forum where a guy took a shot at his first whitetail in FOUR YEARS (and he wasn't successful in taking that deer).

I believe it....but it's still "interesting".

I know for me personally, I usually average 12-15 hours in a stand before seeing a shooter or takeing one. My hunts are limited to after work or my days off, so I usually average about 4 hours a trip on stand. Just my stats from old journals i have kept.

Haha. Wait.. do the days carry over from the last season or start fresh with each bow year? If they carry over, I should be due a deer this Saturday for my first time out this season.
