I can hunt elk on my own property, for both bulls and cows without being drawn. Big whoop-di-doo. Hunting is 90% location and 10% everything else.
The best and most successful hunters will find and gain access to the best areas available to him. That might be by walking his tail off, or by just buying the place, or researching and travelling to the best States, provinces and zones. It could be as simple as an accident of birth, or a willingness to beg for access.
Just like fishing, an average fisherman will do great on a great lake. Likely better than a "great" fisherman on a poor lake or at a bad time. You have to wonder just how "great" the guy actually is if he's in the wrong place at the wrong time to begin with.
