I live in central Alberta and we have had a bad couple of winters but I still believe that Bearpaw outfitters here in AB are killing the biggest mule deer these days. If I remember right they killed 30 bucks in 05 and 9 of them went over 200". Another great outfit up here is Mike Ukrainetz outfitting. I hunted the eastern plains of Colorado in 2003 and the quality of deer was significantly lower than here in AB. That is subject to a lot of variables of course. Hope this helps.
