There are so few B&C bucks taken anywhere. This article doesn't even tell you how many B&C were taken in each state.
Plus there are many other factors. I can tell you've never hunted Iowa because you wouldn't even be speaking Indiana in the same breath. Iowa blows away IN & IL. Period. Been there seen that. I know when I lived in Indiana anyone who took a 126" deer would be running to enter it in P&Y before they got it to the meat locker. I inspect post offices and work statewide in Illinois. Can't tell you how many photos of absolute toads that don't get entered. I can't imagine the mentality in IN switched over that quickly.
Looking for real P&Y/B&C stats. Not an article.
