The western part of Kansas is a bit harder to hunt because as mentiond it is flat and made up of draws of woods instead of say like a 100 acres of timber. I have hunted here all my life (Eastern Kansas) and like my fellow Kansans have said the huge bucks are not easy to come by without alot of preperation. But they are here. Google earth you friends land and see what you might be hunting in. There is also a ton of public land in Eastern Kansas that hardly ever sees a bow hunter.
