Hunt By Numbers.
#41
I work for a Cellular phone service carrier. In Cellsite Tech terms we have what is called an MSA and an RSA. An MSA is a "Metropolitan Service Area". An RSA is a "Rural Service Area". It all boils down to this. Some of us hunt in MSA's and some hunt in RSA's.

I've seen something like this before, but the odds were based on B&C bucks instead of age, someone else can find out how many 5 1/2 year olds it takes to get a B&C buck. The odds weremuch better than I thought. They took the number oflicensed hunters over a 10 year period and divided by the the number of170" typical and 195" nontypicals foreach state over the same 10 year period. I can'tremember the exact numbers, but this is close.
Kansas was #1 at1in 4000 something odds each year
Illinois was #2 at 1 in 12,000 something odds each year
Kentucky was #3 at 1 in 18,000 something odds each year
And the numbers keep going up from there. Also figure in that allot of those hunters sight there gun in the day before season and hunt one weekend a year. Also figure in that 80% shoot the firstbuck they see.

I think those coaster size nipples are getting out of control. However, I see a I like your logic... numbers don't lie. You're still the undisputed king of small deer in my book. Keep it up buddy, keep it up.

God, I never thought I'd say this, but I long for the old days when threads were declared off topic and the author was given a stern warning. OH wait, that still happens for some. Ok, forget what I said.

So what the king is trying to tell me, is that there are 7 to 8 3.5yo bucks on a 10,000 acre public hunting grounds, by his numbers. Hasn't his majesty himself hunted bigger tracts than this?
I thought these bucks don't exist in PA?
