[QUOTE="Bushape, post: 4903878, member: 20106"] I don’t want to speak for them, but I think the Deep South is the toughest for them to consistently find good bucks due to the habitat. I hunted with them in MS in January, and there were definitely some really good mature deer there, but with almost no distinguishable pattern and not much to funnel their movement. Warb and I talked about how spending just an extra week or so would have been a huge help in putting the pieces together to kill something. I saw a mature wide 8 point at about 60 yards when I was down there. Still wish I’d had another week myself to hunt there. As for my public land kills, it’s mostly antlerless deer. But I’ve killed a few good 2.5 year olds, and had a couple of close encounters with older deer. And during the summer, I’ve seen all kinds of big bucks eating soybeans, so I know they are around. Hunting them is a different story, with Chinese privet and cedar thickets, lots of CRP infested with briars, and odd property lines that make it very difficult to hunt a specific deer.

Hunting in southern Tn a rarely see people kill deer as large as what they routinely stalk to within 20 yards. [/QUOTE]
