OK...I'll try again.

I'd ask to own Illinois...and then I'd lease it out.

Certainly get about a 1000+ acres of prime whitetail land, wouldn't even have to be in big buck country, but soon enough it would be.....so besides playing deer expert.

I'd certainly take 1-3 big trips every year, in the fall, maybe another 1 in the spring...

Simple for me. First thing I would do would be buy some land of my own loaded with deer and turkeys. Then I would book an africa hunt. Then I would do 2-3 hunts a year for various animals like hogs, elk, antelope and bear.

Dang I wish I was rich...

I’d buy as much land as I could afford. I’d also travel the country hunting and fishing. Definitely to Africa as well. I’d go to New Zealand to hunt and fish, and Argentina to fish.

If this is the case I'm rooting for you to win!

If I won I'd buy a property in PA of several thousand acres and manage it. There would be nothing better to me than consistently taking quality bucks in my home state.

I'd also buy some property in IA and lease it out to a farmer to manage while I'm not there. I would also build out this property and manage it for bigbucks and a balanced herd.

Both properties would become grounds I would use to host charitiy events like Catch A Dream and other outdoor children's organizations.

I would also travel to Africa and across North America on hunting excursions.

I've got one neighbor that can't read a posted sign. I'd probably set him up for life with BBM's home grown "Turd of the Month" delivery. I'd have to pay a premium to UPS, but it would be worth it.

I'd buy the 500+/- acres around my house, then branch out from there. Try to buy all ground that adjoins mine, etc. Build a big lake, r/c car track for a few buddies, etc. Then do whatever I want from then on. Probably burn some tires once in awhile just to piss the neighbors off, much like I do now.
