Default The Top 20 Contest bucks......Where they lived

Interesting stats on the top 20 bucks entered in the contest and how they break out by state.
First off, the top 20 bucks ranged from 141 2/8" on up to GregH's 171 6/8. So all top 20 break the 140" mark (Actually upon checking there was only one buck that broke 140" that didn't make the top 20)

The top 20 bucks By state:
Illinois (4)
Missouri (3)
Ohio (3)
Minnesota (3)
Pennsylvania (2)
Iowa (1)
Oklahoma (1)
Maryland (1)
Kansas (1)
Idaho (1)

The top 10 bucks of 2007/2008

1. 171 6/8" GregH(IL)
2. 165 6/8"MkMGobl (IL)
3. 165 2/8" Hunteropel (MO)
4. 162 4/8" Tribal (MN)
5. 160 2/8" NavyDeerHunter (MD)
6. 159 7/8" 14mercs (IL)
7. 150 2/8" Stickbow26 (IL)
8. 149 7/8" Huntingson (OH)
9. 149 5/8" Matt / PA (PA)
10.146 6/8" Dubbya (OK)

Yeah, but lookie there big boy.....2 of them were from PA!! And MO, a midwestern state, only had 3......

I wonder how the chips fall for each state, size irelevant.....I may have to work on that in my spare time....

Kinda surprised Kansas only had 1 in the top 20.

Another reason hunting land prices are going thru the roof in IL.
