Thats an easy one for me: I live in extreme southern Indiana and hunt whitetails. I would move to Illinois and continue to hunt whitetails. I work on the Indiana side of thr river boardering Illinois so moving would put me still at my job. I work with alot of Illionois boys and they take some bruisers every year. Did i mention that i hunt turkeys to! [8D]

I'd uproot andgo somewhere where I had a legitimate shot at aP&Y whitetailbuckevery year, which isn't too much to ask,and had other big game options available with legal sunday hunting and low pressure (spring bears, elk, mulies, turkeys, etc...) Any area that fits that description would be more than Kosher.

I currently live in MO and hunt whitetails in Mo & IL.

I would move to Idaho, Montana or Wyoming and hunt Whitetail, Mule Deer, Elk, Pronghorn, bearand anything else I could get a tag for.

Not far behind would be Saskatchawan or Alberta.

Can I start packing?

Idaho, they have sooooo much stuff out there to hunt, I would give up the crowds of PA real quick.

others probably on the list would be montana and Iowa.

I would go to Montana and chase everything. One of if not the ONLY place I know of that just about has it all. If it had an ocean I could surf and fish in I'd probably already live there. Amazing waterfowl, great whitetails, awesome big game, and they even have turkeys. No doubt thats where I'd go. Heck me and girl were talking about it on Saturday...we might just go anyway.

I wouldnt mind trying Kansan out. I hear the Whitetail hunting is great and it would be a little bit warmer too.

I currently live in PA and hunt PA and NJ and mostly hunt whitetails.

I would probably move to northeast MO so I could hunt MO, IA, and IL, and still have the option of hitting KS and NE.

It's funny how the guys from the midwest would go elsewhere (MN or ID) and everyone else would go to the midwest. The grass is always greener.

I currently live in NY and hunt NY and PA for whitetails and turkeys. If I could move anywhere and uproot, I would without a doubt go to Montana I think. I would hunt every big game animal I could out there, and they still have some fantastic whitetail hunting as well.
