RE: What state would you prefer to hunt in?
Iowa, Iowa, Iowa. And if I couldn't hunt here, I would hunt in.......Iowa! LOL Really, we are blessed with a great population of deer in southern Iowa and the land is all privately owned. Plus the fact that it costs non-resident hunters $315.00 to enter into a lottery to come hunt in this state. And we aren't allowed to use high powered rifles in Iowa. Just bows, black powder, shotguns, and handguns. We have alot of typical racked bucks. I haven't seen any non-typicals. But some of them are enormous! And you mentioned cheap land? I bought this farm 4 years ago and moved here from Omaha, NE. I paid $650.00 an acre for the 80 acres! That's $52,00.00! We owned a mobile home in Omaha and just moved it out here. My monthly mortgage payments are only $288.10 a month! Can't beat that. And I have a 3.5 acre farm pond in my front yard full of fish! There is plenty of land around here for $1000.00 an acre or less. And it's some of the best hunting in the country.
