ohio hunt

Josh,

I will be heading up to Ohio for a week of bowhunting the last week in October. I will be hunting north and east of the town of Coshocton, Ohio. What can we expect as far as quality and numbers of deer in that area. Any info would be appreciated!

Nice pics Joshua! Thanks for sharing.
I have a buddy in Pioneer, Ohio. A few years ago I emailed him a pic of a mule deer I had just shot with a bow (my first bow kill) and I was bragging about it weighing 250 lbs. He replied back right quick that a lot of Ohio WHITETAILS go over 250 pounds. He started sending me clippings and Wild Ohio magazines to prove it....still does. We were up there two summers ago and he showed me some of them. Y'all have some big deer up there. And corn! And mosquitoes!

droptine1, I have never hunted in Coshocton County. I have driven through it and it is very good looking country. I have heard that there are some really good deer there. Four of the counties that Coshocton borders are some of the top producers in the entire state of both numbers of deer killed and big bucks killed. Those are Licking, Muskingum, Guernsey and Tuscarawas.

rtread, we definitely do have some big bodied deer up here. My buck from last year dressed 165, and my buck from the year before dressed 200. I think they were both 3.5 year old bucks. There's an older buck I've got trail camera pictures of that would whip either of them easily in the weight department. It's not hard to understand why they get so big. Within a half mile of where I hunt there is 100+ acres of both corn and soybeans - every year. Plus, being a northern state with colder winters, they are naturally bigger in body size, as they have to be to survive the winters. We don't have winters like Minnesota or Michigan, but we still get a good bit of snow and cold (55 inches last winter).

The fun part is trying to load one of these big bodied deer onto your ATV rack or pull one up into the back of your pickup bed! Pretty tough to do without a 2nd person

I pulled the camera today and had a bunch more pics of these bucks on there. In particular, I had some much better, close-up pics of the big 13 point. Just had to post them up. He is a stud, makes my pulse race big time! Below him is another buck I got pictures of this go-round. He's an old patriarch. This is the 3rd year in a row I've gotten pictures of him, and his rack appears to be on the downhill swing, although he is still very, very impressive. I named him "short g2" because every year I've seen him, his g2 on the right side has always been shorter than that on the left side. I had him at 10 yards in January of this year while I was trying to kill a doe, but I had to pass him up because I had already killed my 1 buck back in November. If I get a chance at him this fall, it would be very difficult for me to pass him up, even with the knowledge of what other, bigger bucks are roaming these woods.
