Wisconsin- Buffalo County

I made that choice about 4yrs ago and moved to Southern Illinois just for the deer hunting. Soon as I got here the deer moved too. It's gotten worse every yr. since I've been here.

I don't know what's happening to the deer population..coyotes eating them, over hunted, cougars or what..but it's not disease I know. I'm in the woods almost every day and don't find any carcases. It's not me spooking them out from being in the woods so much either, because I don't see them on the roads like I use to. Everybody around the area agrees...less deer every yr. for about the last 5yrs.

I'll say Montana.  The scenery and terrain I've seen in photos from some Montana hunts is spectacular.  Maybe not the greatest trophy potential but would be a memorable trip which is more important to me.  I'm actually pretty happy at home here in Minnesota.

It's not a state, but hunting the big bodied, dark antlered bucks of Saskatchewan would be pretty nice too.

I'll have to consult with my future adoptive parents to see where if we could only choose one state. The Wensels and Mittens are are the front-runners in the custody battle over me. I'll get back to you!

Ohio and Kentucky offer bowhunters the best overall options IMO. Very long bow seasons, ample antlerless tags, great chances at mature bucks, etc.

MT. My buddy just bought a place there, and if I draw, I'll be there next fall. There's a bunch of 135 class bucks there with a good chance to see something bigger.

I'm thinkin Indiana is a sleeper state, going to see more and more big bucks come outta there.

I always wanted to hunt one of the bow zones in Alberta.

So many places, so little time...

Texas.......   South Texas.

I would miss Michigan too much if I went somewhere else and could hunt only one state.

The hunting here used to be much better than it is now, but I still couldn`t leave.

i will say, All of the above.  Well, you can't just choose one!!  

If I could go to 5 or 6 states a year to bowhunt without my wife killing me, I would.

Ontario  :D  Not a State but it's as close as we got!
hunt it

Right here in Michigan. A lot cheaper in the long run. Plus, the only thing that antlers are good for is stirring soup,lol!  :)

Wyoming,SD,Montana. Wyoming has awesome, unpressured bucks and you can choose between the mulies and whitetail.

hayslope

I've hunted whitetails in PA, NY, NH, ME, MD, VA, AL, TX, MO, MN, WI, KY and CO.  Each state was fun.

My choice would have to be somewhere that I haven't been and somewhere that I have a strong desire to hunt......and having preference points to boot......IOWA!

OHIO

Massive buck everywhere...AND I could still be hunting right now...that's insane...What a lucky bunch out there...

Everyone should come hunt VT for a season to see how good they have it in their state!
