I have taken several deer over the years with archery tackle. I have had no success this year but I have not been out much. My 72 year old next door neighbor has taken three this fall, using a compound.

Last year so did 21,000 other people in my region, as well as over 100,000 using modern firearms and 16,000 using black powder guns. Over all, the gun shooters have about 10% success rate and archers run less than 5% success.

At that rate, SHTF you can count on success only one time out of every 20-30 trips out the door using your bow and we have a very high deer heard count in my area. The more they are hunted the smarter/more alert they get and late season hunters have very little chance of a kill.
