Have killed 4 down here that big.....our part of the state was restocked with deer about 45-50 years ago. It was restocked with pure Wisconsin stock whitetails. They have over 100,000 acres planted to crops in my county (I work for USDA), about 35,000 acres of that is peanuts, 20,000 corn, etc...WS genetics + all those vittles + long growing season....the deer have a pretty good deal going on down here!

Not a big deal on the bucks down here that run in the 250-275# range....the bigger ones do get some attention though.


You only live once, but...if you do it right, once is enough.
