Good info on location
 
The current NAW has this article with a map and chart ranking the top 11 states with the highest number of BC bucks per square mile from 2001-2006.

So more about location:D I'm bored

PA, OH, KY are coming on strong.
Looks like MI and NY are the odd states out:( Those state lines must keep all the big deer out[8D]

****, the pressure is on since I live in Wisconsin. I guess I need to go in the woods next year and kill a bruiser with my Longbow then take a walk in the woods and blast an even bigger one with the Shotgun! Then I go over to Michigan and eat tag soup or kill a spiker!:D:D:D:D

Thanks Germ, I can't wait!:)

I like to throw in hunter numbers, and huntable land to those charts and come up with my own scoring system, if you know what I mean ;).

THat would be a twist on it.

I think we find NY as the most pressured state, IMO

I had read the article also.I knew Kentucky was ranked high.I was encouraged to see Pennsylvania coming on strong,of course we know Gary Alt ruined the quality of hunting in PA.:D
I wish our DEC in NYS had the stones to really shake things up a bit.Of course it is not entirely their fault.One buck limits,getting the firearms season away from the rut,shortening the firearms season considerably.It doesn't have to be antler restrictions or QDMA to have positive changes occur.I am a QDMA member and I think that if you polled membership you would find that of the possible changes I have mentioned,antler restrictions would be very low on the list.

All time they are 9th for P&Y and 13th for B&C...... Your "location" isn't that bad :D;)

Talk about the shaft... Look at WV... They are almost surrounded by "big buck" states!

2 buck bag limit for gun and other liberal bag limits with a lot of hunter to fill them will do that.

I'm surprised PA is that high already. That is a good sign. I'm kinda surprised not to see Montana in there. They are known as a big buck state.
