Who cares what your trail cams say or what other locals in the area say. The locals around here say the same thing, there isn't no big bucks around!

Only way you kill the Big Deer are to pass up the Dinks.
It just depends on what you want

Nice post Shultzy!
To bad things need to taken to a different level than what was intended for.[>:]
I can vouch for NH not being on "the map", most of us up here don't want anyone to know what we shoot.
As an example, I have a friend that has 11 badges of honor (200+ lbs.) that would all score near/over the minimum and doesn't say boo about it.

The bear hunting is pretty good in NH & ME, my buddy got a P&Y 327.5lb. 20 7/16" black bear in Sept. 2005.
I have managed to get this skull after he passed away @ 42 in Jan. 2007.
I'll take some pics and email them to you.

Thanks Pal - I cried like a baby and still chokes me up, just not fair for his wife and girls and everyone else!
Game Wardens aged the bear @ 15 years old. I'm in the process of getting the bear into the books.

I have noticed a trend that many hunters now could care less about entering their whitetails into the P&Y books. Alot of people these days don't even talk about NET score...it's all about the GROSS.
I however am a P&Y member and have entered animals and probably would in the future.
Thanks for putting together the interesting data Schultzy.
