I live in Van Wert Co. up here in NW Ohio. I hunt several woods here in V.W. Co. and also do some hunting down in Hocking and Athens and Co. for an extra deer. We have the same problem up here during gun law that alot of you talked about. I HATE GUN LAW here!! I know a few guys who actually go out and sit and hunt with a gun, but it is about 95% road hunting and groups of 10 -30 guys pushing every little woods ( and most of them do NOT have permission) , with alot of radios and ATV' s thrown in the mix. Never hunted with a gun and never will. I don' t even like to be out in the light of day or hear any of the road warrior stories that entire week. I have talked a few of the game wardens about it and they hate it also. It is a shame to see the garbage that goes on. It isn' t hunting, it is slaughtering. There are several groups notorious for it around here and they are very unpopular with the true sportsmen around here. Sorry to rant but I love bowhunting so much and just can' t stand the way these jerks hunt that week.

I live & hunt in Medina County, right out my back door in 83 acres of woods. Not tons of deer, but enough to keep it interesting. There is a bruiser back there I saw last season. Hopefully he' ll walk on my side of the deadfall this year. Good luck to all the coming season.

Hi there. I live in central ohio. Madison county near West Jefferson.
Hunt mostly farm land of a friend. Other private land is very hard to get permission to hunt these days and public land is WWIII during gun season and bow season too many people walking around to bow hunt. there have been several good bucks taken on and around the lad where i hunt. I' ll post last years crop in here in a few minutes. Good luck and be safe.

I live in Springboro but usually hunt in Athens. I would love to shoot Carp, gar, etc... during summer months. Where can I go for some action? Caesars creek and find the feeder streams or do you shoot in local rivers/streams?

I' m actually from Michigan...' bout half hour north of Toledo, but I' ll be bow hunting in Licking county this year at a friends place. He only gun hunts. Anyone tell me what to expect?

If you are hunting private land in Licking you are in a excellent place. It is one of Ohio' s to 10 counties for # of deer taken and 2nd or 3rd for entries in the Buckeye big buck club. You have much to look forward to!! Good luck.

I live in SW Ohio, and hunt Clermont Co. I only live about 20 min. for Indiana, so I hunt there as well. Only bow hunt in Indiana. Tags for N/R very expensive.

Thanks Justin,
It is private land. 610 acres that backs up to a state park from what he told me. I' m pretty pumped. Where I hunt in MI. there are some nice bucks, but nothing like what I' ve seen coming from down there. Hopefully I won' t screw it up!
