I've been thinking of doing some out of state hunting trips. ( I live in northern Michigan) I was wondering where is the best place to go and not use an outfitter with still having a good chance at a nice buck. I would love to hunt Iowa but I'm not sure if you can get permision on good land. I love to hunt and I feel like I'm a good hunter but big bucks in northern Mi are few and far between mainly because not enough people let the small one grow up. I'm just looking to find some where I could have a good hunt and a chance at a nice deer without braking the bank
