I doubt the skills are much if any different. The numbers I got were from the DNR and represent the whole state. They don't seem out of line with what I know of other states as a whole.
Just because I can pick and choose what deer I want to shoot hasn't got one iota of bearing on the majority of hunters in the state who have an overall success rate hovering around 30% and are doing well to get a deer once in a while.
