    I would love to argue with you but I have a special place in my heart for all of those things. :busted:

    On a side note, we dominate college football down this way as well...You know the rules, as an official member of Tide Pride I must throw football into any conversation regardless if it fits the content or not.

    I had a feeling this would cause some good laughs!! Glad everyone is proud of where they live and hunt, im happy to be in the midwest where 250lb whitetails are average. :)

    Stop trying to weasel your way in with the elite whitetail hunters, the Midwesterners.... You are nothing but one of those weird Northerners who only wishes to be thought upon as a Midwestern whitetail superhero.. Don't ever step on a Midwest whitetail superheros cape son, nothing good will become of it.

    Don't you have some snow to shovel or something? :p

    Deer that grow big racks are smarter......

    I have a good friend from Arkansas who's accomplishments are much more impressive than Miles Keller's. His killed at least three dozen bucks in the 5 1/2 to 7 1/2 year old range, but only a couple made the 140" mark. Keller only killed a small hand full in this age group...all the rest where 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 year olds. :D

    I cant believe you would talk about me like that Scott, LOL!!!

    I've found that when you enter the mid-west you no longer need to be good, all thats really needed is persistences. :D

    Don't let your rebel flag panties get bunched up over it! :tu: Besides... who ever said KY was a Southern state? :confused: :p

    KY is like the weird kid who always peeks and snoops in on what his cool neighbor (Ohio) is doing.

    Buckeye, you may have a point. Where I come from its cornbread and chicken. It's not the "line" that gives us SEC Southerns the greatness to man handle gators, panthers, and any college team that thinks of a National Championship. It is the GRACE of GOD giving us MAN ways, exceptional killing skills, and total domination of anything we touch instead of "just" whitetail skills! I just winked and grinned because while you're reading this, you asked God why the South steals the show!

    i think its becuase of the rich farmlands that help midwestern deer to become so big and elude many of the hunters

    From my vast experience, the deer from the Midwest are much like the people.

    Fat, slow, and naive.

    Ok,, lets settle this once and for all. Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin are where legends are made. It takes extreme skill and patience to wait out trophy whitetails in those states. It is true that the South has alot of deer, they are just much easier to hunt and never weigh over 110lbs. North wins......Again!!!:nana::nana::woot:

    That's a BIG negative on the deer part. Your northern and midwestern deer are 100 times easier! Calls, scents, and everything in between work in those named above but not in the south, pal. Not a chance! As far as skill to wait one out, come on now. You truly are starting to sound helpless. In the south, the deer know what the sound of mud tires slowing down are and BOOM they're gone! You can hand feed them everywhere else!

    I hope the northerners will remember, a southern man don't need them around anyhow.

    Besides, everyone knows southerners tell the best hunting stories.

    "There he was, a big ol buck and he had no idea I was watching him. So I rolled the window down....real slow like."
