I gotta move, you guys gripe about coming up "empty handed" after being able to pass on 20 deer. If you even saw 20 deer this year around where I live, people would be looking at you with the dagger-eyed look of jealousy. Tell someone you passed on big buck in hopes of a bigger one, and you'll be losing friends fast!

I got back from Illinois last week after having a revelation. I had the opportunity to pass on at least 5 120 class bucks (outfitter has a 130" minimum) and one borderline shooter in just the first three days! And things on my end of the property were SLOW! That was just ridiculous.

So my question is: Since my wife won't agree to leave our family behind in favor of moving to where there are more deer than people in the woods, how do I get my in-laws convinced THEY need to move to the midwest?
