RE: Let's see those Wisconsin bucks.
I live in the Central U.P. now and own land with my house that I hunt on, and then I hunt the public land too. I love the U.P....but I wish the hunting was as good as where I hunt in WI! I also hunt the public land in PA for rifle every year and that is a great hunt! No bait, no blinds, no ATV's, and a large portion of the public land is shut off to vehicle use with gates...basically any "dead-end". The deer population has been shrinking, but the bucks are getting older and you can wander for hours without running into another hunter if you get off the road a ways. It is fun hunting other areas though...hope you get a chance to do so someday because it's great to have new experiences and see what some of the other states have to offer..even if it's on public land.
