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.
I agree, hunting on land in the central portion of Wisconsin is going to be more productive than heading north where the deer tend to be more scattered and harder to pattern. Find some Wisconsin hunting land in the central region that is adjacent to some agricultural land where the deer feed and it's much easier trying to pattern them and know where to put a stand. Good Luck!
