Hunting Question: Do the majority of hunters travel in groups of one or more than one?

My thinking here is that our killer appears to get his thrill not from seeing his victims suffer and die (as most serial killers do), but from the hunt itself. I'm also thinking that hunting is more satisfying when you have a buddy or two to whom you can show off. "Bet you can't hit that tree... Bet you can't take a buck down with one shot... etc." If so, it would imply to me that we're doing with two people in the van.

Taking this one step further, I would think it's also much more satisfying to show off to someone who would appreciate your skill. A guy I saw a few minutes ago on CNN when flipping through the channels thought there were two people, but thought it much more likely only the "dominant" one would be the shooter. I would think it much more likely one hunter would get much more satisfaction showing off to another hunter and thus both would trade off shooting.
