I'm seeing BIG deer already and they still are growin!! unfortunately it's only mule deer so far. My whitetail place is further up north so I'm hoping they are growing up there too. I'm sure you won't be dissapointed with whatever size deer you get, just remember to dress appropriately. It can get bitterly cold up there and really ruin your hunt if you aren't prepared, a couple of my buddies found that out last year the hard way[&:] Needless to say, they both dropped some coin on some real good cold weather boots and clothes in the off season. Good luck and let us know how you make out...JDinAB
