I'll agree and disagree both. yes I think there are more nicer bucks out there than some people think, but not many more. i also think that in many cases you may have a big buck that lives in your area BUT that land you may have access to, isn't really where he spends much time at all. Where i hunt the land is chopped up pretty good amongst several landowners, and if you only have acess to one of the spots you are going to be hard pressed to score on the big one, if 90 % of his time is spent elsewhere.
