RE: Media...The opiate of the masses
I hear you. Now, I hunt the Milk River in Montana, and it's a vast divide between what the videos portray and what I actually see. I'm not hunting any of the exclusive private land from the videos, but...
I commonly see the Milk River forced into a class with IL, IA, KS, and Canada, and that's just really a false comparison. Someone who has hunted prime land in those other areas is going to be massively disappointed if they outlay their bucks for a pilgrimage in pursuit of Milk River bucks.
Don't get me wrong, it's solid hunting and there are some good bucks. Just remember, in that country a 3 1/2 year old is only going to score 105-125, which just doesn't compare to the scores of those midwestern bucks that can push B&C by the same age.
