I found one that said 75 percent chance at a opportunity to kill a big deer with bow and 85 percent with rifle in Illinois.
Dont put much stock in these numbers. Opportunity can mean anything from "the hunter had a shot but the deer was out of range" to "we saw a big one cross the road while we were driving back to camp". Kill rate doesnt mean shite if the quality isnt there and many outfitters pad their kill rates substantially.
Get references from successful and unsuccesful hunters. If the outfitter cant provide them then move along to someone else. Dont invest any stock in a reference thats more than one year old. What the outfitter was doing 5 or more years ago doesnt mean crap today.

If you pay big $$$ and don't get a deer...you can always come here to vent right?
