I agree with this..

Iowa since Iowa and Arakansas are the only places I hunt and Arkansas didn't seem that good the past 3 years.

I will say WI, but not because I come from this state but because seriously there are a lot of deer here. A lot of food, over 15,000 lakes so water isn't a problem and BIG bucks that will fill up the freezer. After a couple years of earn a buck, Im starting to see a lot of big racked bucks running around.

Yep, you'll have to be more specific. Best for what??? number of deer, number of B&C, number of P&Y, number of bucks, number of all sexes and ages combined.

If you ar talking about B&C and P&Y, then MN has to be in the top 10, if not the top 5.

If you are talking about total # of deer, MN has to be in the top 10.

If you are talking about # of hunters WI has to be up there.

Be more specific .....
