Those packs may be quiet this year because of the heavy snow last winter, which afforded them some relatively easier hunting. Deeper snow kinda levels the proverbial playing field.

BTW -- If y'all want to hunt deer, come on down to Pennsyltuckey -- we have more deer (and black bear) per square mile than any other state. Come get 'em before the cars do!
