[QUOTE="fairchaser, post: 4356790, member: 10373"] You get a lot for your money at Ames but it's not for every hunter. Where can you have that much land to explore where you have a decent chance at a 130+ every year. The odds are 1 every 3 years but even higher for dedicated veteran hunters. Unlike a small property where you more or less just have to decide which box stand or permanent ladder stand you want to sit in for that hunt, Ames provides an ever changing vast landscape of a diverse habitat to explore. For me, that is the hunt more than anything else. Sure you can do that on public land but without rules keeping it fair and safe as well as keeping young bucks from being killed. There is always that opportunity for a giant 160+ but the pressure put on by Ames hunters and the likelihood of one of those escaping the gun at an earlier age is going to be extremely rare. Personally there is no other place I'd rather be. But, it does get frustrating always running into hunters, deer stands and cameras. They are everywhere! [/QUOTE]
