You can't compare the two. Hunting the wind wasn't the reason for their success. An excess of Deer played a bigger part.

You're right, you can't. Deer were nearly hunted to extinction in some parts. Market hunting was a big reason and no seasons. There are more deer here now, than when Columbus landed!

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.
