You don't need to hire a guide or even hunt private land to kill big bucks in Wisconsin. Alot of big ones shot every year on public land both rifle and bow. Its just a matter of getting away from the crowds (which is very easy during archery) and spending the time in the woods.

That's the same way in MO.  Lot's of people head North to the Iowa border and lots of public land up there!

I wouldn't head my way in MO to hunt though.  There are some big deer, but not as big as up North!!

Mike over the last few years there have been two taken in Fordland over 190" not to mention that big ole hat rack that scored well over 200 in Rogersville, so there are some giants around our parts still.

Wow,
I would say those are giants.  Hope you MO boys connect on one of those.  Being from PA, I thought(heard) you guys in MO had really good deer huntingas well as turkey.

I must say here in MO the hunting  is really great for deer and turkey. Very fortunate to have the opportunity to hunt here. Our conservation department does a fantastic job managing the herd.
