So what is the best deer state in the Northeast??
Mass hunter here. Looking to hunt other NE states to extend my gun season in 2006. VT, NH, CT, NY, PA, NJ, ME?? Just curious of your opinions. With all the complaining I see hereabout how much NJ,PA and NY sucks now, what state would you choose if you where in my shoes??
NY still looks good to me for density, Maine for monsters.

I like Northern Maine and northern New Hampshire public land hunting. Big country and you can track all day without seeing another hunter. I didn't go to those states this year but hunted NY iand Newfoundland instead. Don't go to Vt, I live there and it is bad.
