Hunting in western MD is ok, but the terrain is much more demanding than other parts of MD. The racks aren't anything to brag about. Guides in the area will boast about seeing a tall spike at the local watering hole if that gives you any idea about the common rack size there.

There is more of a selection (bear, good turkey population) as already mentioned. If you are looking for both good deer numbers and nice racks then you would be best served to hunt from Frederick, MD and east from there (again, as already mentioned).

Central MD and the Eastern shore both have great size bucks and even sika deer in certain areas of the Easter shore.
