[QUOTE="Land Between the Lakes, post: 4234287, member: 16238"] I've lived and hunted in different regions of America. Most so called 'Trophy States" are not nearly as good as the media would have you believe. In the top rated states there are still tons of farms and properties that are not good at all. I would say at least 95% of hunters in the Midwest have never taken a buck that net scores over 160 inches, if they have they have probably only taken 1 or 2 that large. This is reality for most hunters, even in the Midwest. The truth is parts of Tennessee actually have great deer hunting, and a lot of large bucks. There are a lot of farms and properties in TN much better than a lot of farms and properties in the Midwest. I know because I have lived and hunted in both areas of the country. Tennessee has a higher overall deer population than most Midwest states. TN also has a good population of quality 120 to 135 inch bucks, which are quality bucks for most people. Contrary to what the media wants you to think, a 135 inch buck is still considered a quality buck to most hunters in the Midwest. And thankfully there are probably thousands of bucks in that size range roaming around TN. [/QUOTE]
