RE: Minnesota????
Buckmine-I think your assesment is very true. When I lived in MN I found that the "brown is down" moniker to ring very true. a button buck was just as good as a 10pt. People there wanted big bucks but didn't have the comon sense or will power to not pull the trigger. Great state to hunt for all species of game, but it could be much better.
MNPurple, I think you have something confused. People say you hunt near "Gods Country" in fact if you are in LaCresent (I student taught at LaCresent/Hokah Elementary) and you look straight Eastyou can see Gods Country! Ha ha.
