What part of South Central KY..?? I grew up in Frankilin, and when I was a kid , there were very very few white-tails at all in that area ( 60's and 70's) Now I am 45, still go home to visit my family and friends....and near Thanksgiving and Christmas, I see all the pictures in the Franklin Favorite newspaper with men, women and kids with 8 points, 12 points, 9 points etc etc..right there in Simpson County. I guess I cannot answer your question, but I agree, the deer herds in Logan, Warren, Simpson, Allen Butler counties....are pretty awesome.......also Robertson, and Sumner county Tenn...( since they border KY)

There is alot of corn and soybeans here in the bluegrass and that makes for healthy deer herds. As far as average weights I do not know. I have had the fortune of taking 16 deer in the 10 years I have been hunting and none of them under 125lbs (field dressed). I hunt a few counties in KY.(Hardin, Hancock, Clay and Perry)

I live in Clinton County. It is really a nice place especially in the fall. There seems to be in my opinion an abundance of good healthy does and bucks you can see randomly every other day. Although now I can't say that Ipositively I see bucks since they have already shed there antlers. They really have alot of farm land to forage on.

The racks aren't that bad either. I believe on an average there is at least 40 Boone and Crocketts taken evey year. The only down side is we are allowed to harvest only one buck per year. It makes me question a lot of animals that I let walk past me.
