RE: SE minnesota hunting
To tell you the truth, There are big bucks but you have to work for it. I mean go where hunters don't go and some more. If you are going to hunt in areas that is a couple blocks then you are wasting your time in the public areas down there. If you do find a lease or private land then you'll have the best chance at a big buck. Most of the big bucks down there are taken from private land. I hunt most of the areas in white water and Winona Co. areas all the way to houston county and those are some really hard places to hunt. Alot of first timers quit going there because there's tons of pressure andit get hammer like ansome army at warduring the hunting season. You can always take your chances but I know for sure if you find a place someone already found it too and there is no such thing as a secret place down there. Good luck.
