I clicked OTHER.. Saskatchewan

I would like to hunt in Montana and Colorado as much for the scenery as anything else.

I hunt Pike county, Illinois for several weeks every year, so I will pick another location for my dream whitetail spot........

Kansas or Iowa.........hopefully both.

I'm going to Pike county for a once in a lifetime hunt. HOWEVER, Illinois is second in my book behind Saskatchewan. I'd rather hunt the huge remote northern woods than Illinois.

There are so many outfitters in Illinois that it seems like the bucks reach maturity because all the outfitters manage the deer herd to maximize their profits. In Saskatchewan, it seems like the bucks reach maturity because there's little hunting pressure. It just seems more "natural" that way.

I clicked other because I haven't seen a better place to hunt then a state over run with deer and thats Md. Where else can you go and see 150+ class bucks 30% of the time. I will admit last year was the first in many I didn't have that run rate. This year I hope to be back up there.

If it was a dream place I would go it would be Saskatchewan

Iowa for me!

I voted "Other" because my choice is right where I live , Indiana .
I have a lifetime license , so I can hunt here for free for the rest of my life and even write my own tags . Add to that the fact that I live right in the middle of a game crossroads , so all I have to do is roll out of bed , get dressed , and walk as little as 50 yards to a good blind , or 150 yards at maximum , and deer come to me . If I take a short drive I can enter a national forest for $4 per day where I can walk in a mile or two and see bucks that are scary huge and have rarely even seen a human . Another short drive will get me to another stretch of that forest where there are also great bucks , but the place gets almost no pressure because they don't allow motorized vehicles . Trundle yourself in on one of the fire roads dragging a deer cart behind your mountain bike and you could realistically find yourself packing out a state record buck with a little bit of effort on your part .

Sometimes goldmines are right under your nose .

I have to stick with my home state of Iowa! I am lucky to have lived here most of my life. My second choice is Kansas in the states, or Ontario Canada. I have hunted Ontario twice, and the whitetails are massive. It is tough hunting, but well worth it when you are successful.

I think Iowa and Saskatchewan should have been in the pole, as stated above that would be my choice besides my home state. Pike Co. IL is great but there are so many outfitters and hunters, I'm telling you right now that the entire state is capable of producing record book deer.. I see it every year...
Northern MO is another good spot.. Pike Co. MO right across the river from Pike, IL has some great deer too.

Kansas and north oklahoma have some real nice ones and i'll show you one ,when deer season opens here
