Like most, I could probably do all the hunting I needed within 10 miles of my door. But, it's too fuggin boring. I enjoy getting away and hunting interesting places with interesting people...

The last few years this has been my route each year for Deer:

Western Indiana - 188 Miles
Northern Nebraska - 725 Miles
Southern Illinois - 356 Miles

I take off work in early November for a month and hit it. I am fortunate to be able to do this and really enjoy it.
