If location REALLY doesn't matter... at all...

Then y'all won't be shy about posting the GPS coordinates of your favorite deer stands. Feel free to add driving directions - maybe tell us where the best parking area is... et cetera...You can easily just find a new spot to hunt - since any chunk of woods is as good as the next...

Or maybe you'd be prepared to explain to me why people spend millions every year traveling from the east coast - just to sit in a treestand for a week in Pike Co., IL or Biggar, SK. I mean, hell, it's just as easy to shoot a 150-class deer in Delaware, right?

Now I'm not saying that "location" is the end-all, be-all of hunting (it's not).There are plenty of other intangibles (food, carrying capacity, hunting pressure, antler management program, property size, etc...) - but location is a very valid consideration.

So let's get those GPS coordinates in. I'm ready for a Realtree Roadtrip of my own.

Yea, location and deer numbers don't matter yet we see countless threads every year telling guys NEVER to give up their prime stand locations and whatever you do don't tell someone else if you saw a nice deer.
