Oh, i'll agree with you there!
I know Maryland has both white tailed, and black tailed deer.
The black tailed range more towards the coastal area.
Once you go so far east, then firearm deer hunting is shotgun only.
This done due to it being more "urban" there. Never mind the 2,000 yard square fields and large patches of woods between Annapolis and the Atlantic.
Our game commission does have shooting ranges on certain game lands.
50 & 100 yards on the rifle side, 50 yards on the pistol side.
If you want to learn to extend your range, then it's club membership for you.
Locally, 1 range extends to 430 yards up the side of the mountain, when the leaves have fallen. If the trees have their leaves, then it's a 300 yard range.
Cost for membership is $25 per person.
Another range, slightly further drive, is 1,000 yards.
Membership is $80 for a family, and you must shoot 1 match per year.
