How far do you drive??

[bowless]

Just curious on your average driving distance to the local hotspot?  I have public forest 10 miles away, not too productive.  Or 200 miles away to fairly large amounts of public forest.

[KyStickbow]

I drive an hour to my hunting lease.

[Sean B]

I have a local hot spot 5 miles, I have a few spots a couple of counties away (130 mi), a spot about 15 miles

[centaur]

I'm 5 minutes or so from whitetails and turkeys, about a half hour to elk.
If I wanted to hunt mule deer, it would be closer; taken out my kitchen window last summer.
 

[Alexander Traditional]

My spot is about about seventy miles,so a little over an hour. I'm headed out there right now as a matter of fact!

[Michael Pfander]

I hunt all of the mountains around Tucson [Catalinas,Santa Ritas,and Rincons].  Most places are an hour or 2 away.

I used to hunt a farm 2 hour drive from home, but that's gone now. About the same distance to some public land, but that's being ruined by snow mobilers in the winter.
Otherwise, 22 hours to moose camp and 7 1/2 hours to turkey camp in Southern Ohio.
I've been thinking about buying some property. I recently found a 60 acre piece about 2 hours from home for $129,000. We'll see...

[Bill Turner]

135 miles or roughly 2 hrs. and 15 min. depending on traffic.  

[Russ Clagett]

About an hour for deer and turkeys

[ron w]

Just about an hour.....but there are no HOT spots that close to me. I have public land that is 15 minutes away but there ate very few deer there.

15 minutes to my spot in town this year. The lease I just got off of (was on it for the last 15yrs) was 3hrs 45 minutes from where I live.

300 miles or six hours.  Have driven it for one day of hunting in the past.  In fact, just got back from one day of hunting there.  If you aren't out there, you won't kill one.

[tim roberts]

5-6 hours, takes time to get out of the antibowhunting place called utah!

[Tickbait]

Three miles behind my house, 7,000 acres of gamelands.  Two miles in front of my house, 97,000 acres of state forest.  I'm pretty lucky!

[shag08]

Both of my leases are about 10-15 mins from home. I've also got 40 acres to hunt right out of my back yard.

[BenM]

Not typically a jealous type but, Centaur you got me.

[troutbum1]

I drive 3 miles to a 3,500 acres forest. I can take them from my deck, But there off limits.

[3arrows]

110 miles to lease,2 hrs.

[Michael Arnette]

I hunt a farm about an hour away and two public areas that are 30min and 90min away. I always see the bigger bucks on public but kill more deer on the farm. I'm getting a start at changing that trend this year...we'll see

[John Scifres]

60 miles to the camper, 70 to another good spot.  I have a spot 20 minutes away but I don't hunt it much as to not wear out my welcome with the landowner who is also a trad bowhunter.
