Hi Pastor Jim,
I do most of my hunting in Sothern Wisconsin, but do travel to the Northwoods occasionally... I have some friends who do quite well in Superior area. One guy I know has taken two deer that gross over 200 inches in that area. As I am sure your aware though, the population has been brought down in rexcent years making the hunt a little harder. If your goal is killing a big buck, I would abandon the bigwoods idea and concentrate on S.C. Wisc. public land... If its solitude and the thrill of the chase, the big woods should give you an excellent hunt.
