.He has a ton of private land to hunt on as he sells the shrubbery and the deer then eat the shrubbery and the people beg him to hunt there.

Isn't Connecticut the 3rd smallest state? There isn't a ton of any land there. Congrats on the deer.

Martentrapper, it is a small state, but deer are stacked up in a lot of it. Liberal limits too (4 bow, 2 firearms, 2 ML, 1 state land shotgun, 1 state ML), and in zones 11 & 12 along the heavily populated shoreline, pretty much unlimited replacement tags. Black Bear population (no season) is getting out of control in the NW too.

How hard is it to find a good area to hunt? State land or maybe even private.

Private land can be difficult, but plenty of state land. Our largest state forest is about 28,000 acres. That may be a private ranch in some parts of the country, but it's big woods here.

Are we all welcome then to hunt on your bro in law land, Bruce? Help keep the population down?
