We dang sure don't have any big bucks in Arkansas. Only a bunch of spikes and fork horns around here. I think I'm heading to PA next year, after some of the bucks I have seen posted on here this year.

RE: Secret to killing big bucks.
I'm real disappointed that Illinoisbasically tripled the price of a non resident archery tag and went to a draw system. I can live with the draw, but the $325 for the tag kills it for me. All the Illinois hype obviously caused the state to raise the price tag to make more money.Due to the cost it hasbasically eliminated that state from my list which stinks. It's a shame, because I enjoyed hunting there in the past on both public and private ground.
Unfortunately as time goes by this is becoming more and more a rich mans pursuit.

Well all I know is Ohio sucks for big bucks... basically there are no deer here at all. I think everyone is better off hunting Illinois.
