Been trying to decide where to go on an out of state hunt. Probably 4 or 5 guys. Would love to hunt Kansas but it seems between the draw system and higher prices for non residents Nebraska or Kentucky might be better options? Never hunted outside of Texas. Which state would you suggest? Looking for good deer,not a meat hunt. Doesn't have to be 180" but not interested in going that far to shoot a couple of 120" deer either. Any advice would be great.

I'm not familiar with Kentucky but in Nebraska you have both muleys and whitetail. Many parts of the state have both. I've pheasant hunted quite a few times around McCook in the SW part of the state and we always see lots of mule deer in the draws between the crop fields and on CRP land. They also kill some monster whitetails in the bottoms along the Republican River which runs through there. I've heard the hunting along the Platte and Missouri rivers is excellent as well.

I'm going Nebraska . More because the for the most parts the ranches or farms are much larger tracts. My brother just back from a outfitted guided hunt with Whitetail Heavens outfitters in Kentucky and they claim they lease 50,000 acres in Ohio / Kentucky ( which is probably false) . What they don't tell you is that none of it is continuous but small acreage and put 3-5 hunters on 150 acres. And run 100 hunters through per week. Like most other outfitters according to friends of mine up there. Once that big Record buck was killed , Kentucky isn't a sleeper anymore. Kentucky will be shot out soonLast edited by BrandonA; 12-06-2017, 09:31 PM.
