If anyone wants to hunt in Ohio with me...

I found some information here...

http://www.ohiogameandfish.com/hunting/whitetail-deer-hunting/oh_aa123903a/

There are also several hot spots down here just a few miles from my house....

I know the public hunting around me is not any good because its wayyyy overcrowded. The link is to a county in central ohio. SOme of the best bucks in the state come from this particular county.
If anyone is interested I thought about going on a road trip this year. Since I will have to get a frame pack anyways maybe we could just camp out for a few days.

I'm pretty good at reading topographic maps and can also interpret aerials.
Anyone interested?

I'd be interested, but all my extra cash is going to sheep and getting my wife on a deer this year.....

I might be up there this year man. Gonna see what kind of time I have depending on how many hunts I draw out for. If I have time I'll be there. Already talked with Michael and Noel about doing some hunting up there.

hmm, big Ohio whitetail? It depends on what all I draw out for this year as well. If I draw half of what I hope to I'll be a busy boy and I want to make sure I have the time set aside for sheep camp. If I draw goose egg there's a chance I can make it out there. I have a friend up in Toledo I want to see anyways.

wow, sharing a tent with archer on a hunt,,,,,,umm,,wait, are you asking cause you need a chaperone?

His mom will probably be there to make sure we don't drink too much and eat right and get to bed on time. hmmm, it might be worth going on that hunt, it's been a while since I had someone else to take care of me while I was hunting.

I'm one hour south of Toledo!

Along with Brad's invite. I can attest, that there are some great Whitetails in Ohio, but the majority of the herds are concentrated in the eastern and Southern part of Ohio. There are "some" dandy's up around me, but few and far between. Good public land can be had during "BOW" season!

Right Noel, some areas are better than other. I would be more than willing to go out early and do the "ground" pounding for ya all. Not saying I can get you a shot at world class white tail but if ya come down in the early bow season some good hunting can be had. Most of my private hunting spots are by permission only and the landowner already stated that I was the only one.... otherwise I would take all ten of you out and go on a massive killing spree. LOL if anyone is interested I can probably get a week off in late Oct. early Nov. which is obviously the best time. Got lots of time just let me know. Dont have a clue what it costs for licensing and all that stuff I refuse to buy tags or a license for the state that I live in.
