Controlling your scent?

Anyhoo...while there were obvious cylical years based upon weather and other conditions, by and large, bowhunters are taking more deer in just about every state than they did years ago.

I believe that along with better knowledge and education, hunters have access to better equipment, clothing, and the like. When one considers the ever shrinking available land on which to hunt, this is amazing to me. [/B][/QUOTE]

Personally I believe you are correct somewhat with the above statements. People really are better hunters than they used to be...And have much better equipment.


BUT....I have to say there is another part above that is evident to all. Less land and a WHOLE lot more animals to hunt. We have deer coming out our ears. I was in Pa today and saw bunches of deer there also. Lots more than I saw even 10 -15 yrs ago. We also seem to have more hunters but i really don't know if that is borne out by the license sales. And surprisingly, I feel that I am seeing more large and quality racked bucks than I used to see. If so that means the bigger racked bucks are getting ever smarter than the hunters. What is the ol saying...the cream always rises to the top??
