Ohio and Kentucky offer bowhunters the best overall options IMO. Very long bow seasons, ample antlerless tags, great chances at mature bucks, etc.

MT. My buddy just bought a place there, and if I draw, I'll be there next fall. There's a bunch of 135 class bucks there with a good chance to see something bigger.
I'm thinkin Indiana is a sleeper state, going to see more and more big bucks come outta there.
I always wanted to hunt one of the bow zones in Alberta.
So many places, so little time...

i will say, All of the above. Well, you can't just choose one!!
If I could go to 5 or 6 states a year to bowhunt without my wife killing me, I would.

Right here in Michigan. A lot cheaper in the long run. Plus, the only thing that antlers are good for is stirring soup,lol!

I've hunted whitetails in PA, NY, NH, ME, MD, VA, AL, TX, MO, MN, WI, KY and CO. Each state was fun.
My choice would have to be somewhere that I haven't been and somewhere that I have a strong desire to hunt......and having preference points to boot......IOWA!
