My huntin land is loaded with p/y bucks. I know they are there because every year I see them and/or atleast get countless trail cam photos of them. Its just a timing thing for me I guess. There is just soooooo much hardwood timber land to cover. I have yet to narrow down just the right spot, if I can do that, 90%.

i think my chances are very slim like 10-15% because i hunt down in florida= no P&Y deer. But i am going to ohio for a week to bow hunt on my aunts farm, that has some big 12 and 10 points on it, but i dont know how big.

In GA, chances are slim to none.

In Illinois where I hunt, very high I do believe. I've had P&Y bucks in range the last two years, just couldn't quite close the deal right so I didn't shoot. This year instead of the usual 6 day bowhunt, I'll be there (Lord willing that it) at least 15 days bowhunting.

I also plan to hunt 7 days of muzzleloader, too, but that don't count for P&Y.
there are some pretty big deer in georgia, or is just your area.

I have the deer in my area, but i dont know if i will get a crack at one. Its only my third year bowhunting and the odds are against me.

We just purchased some new ground, and I am like a kid in the candy store. This new place has yielded some absolute giants the last few years, I only hope that it continues!

I plan on putting enough time in for one, this is a fact. I will be taking a number of does too.

Probably 1 in 1000. And that is probably a high estimate. We do not kill hardly any P&Y bucks in alot of locations in VA.

Considering I've never seen one......or heard of anyone near me killing one.....I'd say the chances are GREATER of me getting T-boned on the way home from work tomorrow by a submarine.
same here, usually 1 big buck killed around me per year, but usually with a rifle
