I seen a few posts from people who say they are in college. Where does everyone go and how is your hunting?
I am originally from the Green Bay/Appleton area in Wisconsin and I go to UW-La Crosse. There is a lot of public and forest crop land out here and its been awesome seeing some nice bucks out here. I almost went to Milwaukee, and I know I would have never had any opportunity to get out in the woods there.

Well, the hunting wasn't bad...the killing was....lol. I ended up getting a doe with my rifle, but was unsuccessful with my bow. I am attending college at Central Christian College of Kansas. I am only about 2 hours from home, so I got to hunt quite a bit, but not enough...[&:]

Deer coming into my treestand, a big non-typical. Setup is perfect. I draw back, take aim, and the pin settles perfectly on it's chest.....My thumb hits the release, arrow glides noiselessly toward it's target............then I woke up.....dang, another day of classes *sigh*
I live in Kalamazoo, Michigan and go to Western Michigan University. I hunt a 117 acre plot and probably had at least 40 different chances to shoot a doe and maybe 4 shots on bucks. Only two of which I took shots at with my bow and missed both, but oh well, I learned a lot for my first hunting season and will hopefully be successful next year.

I just finished college in May 2008 but my hunting was basically limited to weekends during school. I went to school only 20 miles from my house so I did get a chance occassionally to make it out on weekdays but not too often.
Like Okbowhuter I also go to Oklahoma State University. Originally from Canadian Tx and thats about 4 hrs away, but I am fortunate, the man I work for has about 180 acres that I hunt(and its just an opening of the back door and I am in the woods, got lucky enough to live here) and I also had about 3000 acres I was able to hunt on, mostly just grass but had pockets of wheat and creek bottom. My year was great got 6 does all bow,and had an absolute blast, I will be graduating in May so I will be moving to Elk City Ok to work onan angus/commercial ranch that is 30,000 acres, really pumped about the hunting out there, its gonna be a ton of work to get it all scouted out but if I can it will be awesome.
Oh and Rory just a sidenote, Oklahoma State is rated #1 in America for cost and quality. just keep that in ming. lol

I'm a sophomore at Kent State University here in Northeast Ohio. My high school was only about ten minutes away from campus and since I live so close I just commute to school. It makes it pretty nice hunting-wise because I can still go to all my previous spots. Harvested 3 does this year and passed a ton of other deer. Got about a week left of bowseason here so I am still at it!!
