[QUOTE="scn, post: 3179208, member: 1859"] The controlled studies that have been done found exactly the opposite. Gun hunters lost more deer than archery hunters. As an officer in the field, that is what I found as well. Many gun hunters are so conditioned mentally to seeing an animal drop in their tracks that when one runs off they don't even check to see if they hit or missed the deer. And, with many being hundreds of yards away, it is much more difficult for the hunter to pinpoint where the deer was standing to look for sign of a hit. [/QUOTE]
