I can hunt in areas that average is 200 yards, or in other areas a 1000 so I will say 500 is average. South east PA

Average is within 100 yards. Maybe once a month one might go 200. Have had a few go longer but that long 800-900 yard track is once or twice a year.
This is once they are struck. If you are talking about after being cut loose...I think you could pretty much double the average.

You are correct Tom. These danged ole woodlots are full of them. We do have a couple dens that are treed on multiple times throughout the course of a year.

yes sir, I sure do! Keep em honest on that 50% thread !!

I replied 1/2 mile or less. I was sure if it was after being unsnapped or struck. But either way its under a 1/2 on a consistent basis. More around the 700-900 yard mark though.

And it veries greatly around here on hunting pressure. Some areas seems to be you get big runners and in other areas you get pop ups in comparison.
