Congrats on drawing a tag! That's the way it should be.

T-tags are one of the dumbest ideas that the KDWP has ever came up with.

Careful letting it all out of the bag on a public forum about the monster bucks dropping out of the sky in your area because before you know it you will find yourself sitting in a stand in crowded woods on public land scratching your head wondering how that fella from out of state afforded to buy your honey hole right out from under your boots.

Believe me...it's happened to me.

I was just helping get those guys excited. Everyone knows there is big deer in kansas. I see Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas tags alot on vehilces. Some of the places I deer hunt there's no way some out of state hunter would look at to buy. Heck the hunters that live thier think it wouldn't hold any more than a cotton tail. Yet I dropped a 14 point outa that draw in rifle season.

I can see where jelen would be concerned. You see a lot of the underhanded stuff going on here (SE PA). But I will admit for the three years I hunted in KS, it's not only the deer that bring me back but the hospitality of the people. It's been a long time since I've met people like the ones I'v emet in KS.Just wish I could finda job out there.

Last year a party of three harvested a 169 6/8 and 143 3/8, both with bows. As the season gets closer I can't wait to head out there and scout in late AUG / early SEPT. Get's my heart pumping just thinking about it.

Boy I really want to hunt Kansas! I am actually from there but havent been there in a while. Lucky you.

Congrats,nice job.

If you need information on where to hunt in Kansas. I have clear color aerial photos of every one of the 2,500 sites covering over 1,000,000 acres of public walk-in-hunting.Check out the ground cover, do your scouting from home. If you need GPS coordinates to help you find these areas, I also have them available.
Check it out.
If you get lucky and get some private land, I do custom aerial photography cheap.

Hey Kansashutmap, how current are your ariel photos? I've looked up my land on a couple of web sights, but the photos look to be at least a few years old. For instance, my pasture is getting way over grown with cedar, BUT in the ariel photos that I have looked at, the pasture still looks, for the most part, pretty open!

2005, I attached small sample image, pictures are high resolution and could only upload a very small piece

Congrats to all...Someday, I will be in Kansas!
