Alright, I've just about had it with hunting in Michigan. The deer numbers are down in the UP and northern lower while deer population seems to have exploded in the southern lower. However, the increase in deer population has lead to an increase in deer hunter population as well which means that finding any decent amount of public land in that area is pretty much a lost cause.

Because of this, I'm seriously considering hunting in a different state next season. If I were to do this, were should I concentrate my scouting efforts? I'm thinking that either Ohio or Indiana are my best options. Please let me know where I should start looking.

Thanks!
