about 45 minutes to BSR, but I only go there 2-3 times. 1.75hours from my front door to the first cattle guard of Spade... then another 35 minutes off blacktop to area 11, but feels like 3 hours off blacktop.

27 miles one way! 4 stop signs on the way before I get to the interstate, and 2 stop signs after I get off the interstate, on the way back to my driveway.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

95 miles west or 180 miles east
It's still "we the people", right?

I was once on a lease that was ten minutes away. It turned out not to be a good thing when the wife felt I was close enough that she could expect me to be back home often. Now I drive 80 miles which is still convenient, but far enough that more lengthy stays are necessary. Yep, I was 20 min down the road, but fixed that and hunt an hour away. It works

Back porch/yard has gotten me a few hogs, back pasture one spike and a lot of trapped pigs. I can hunt one spot about 25 minutes across town any time I want, and a couple others around town for hogs when it isn't deer season. None of these are good spots, but a fair spot close by is better than a great spot a long way away.
Deer quality is not measured by antler size
