Recommend: If the land was not over hunte
Reviewer Comments: Jim Clendenny and his brother Mike are very nice guys. They were honest and upfront in telling our group that only 2 or 3 of us would get a shot @ a nice buck. We hunted on the Pike Co. land with Mike Clendenny. He worked very hard and was always a phone call away if you needed him. The land does get overhunted with a new group there every week and many of the stand locations are set up overlooking fields. After the first two hunts, I grabbed my climber and set-up in bottle necks and transition areas. Mike had no problem with this and was willing to help. I just felt the overall quality of the deer was not up to Illinois standard. We did see a few nice bucks but they were 100 to 300 yards away. Only one shot opportunity on a buck out of 7 guys and that was on a 110" deer and they have a 130" minimum. They worked very hard for there clients and I would consider a hunt with them if they had more land with a little less pressure.

New Mexico Hunting Information
New Mexico is one of the top destinations for trophy Elk and Antelope hunting. Draw odds can be tough depending on the unit but landowner tags are also available for those who don't draw. Mule Deer are plentiful but generally of average size. Only a couple of units and reservations consistently produce big muleys.
Kansas Hunting Information
Kansas is one of the top producing monster whitetail buck states in the country. It also has some excellent turkey hunting and a few big mule deer in the western part of the state. Kansas has an excellent reputation as a top notch destination for upland birds. It has excellent populations of pheasant and quail due to the vast expanse of suitable prairie and grassland type habitat.
Iowa Hunting Information
Iowa is one of the best Midwestern states for monster whitetail bucks. Non-residents must apply for a tag in their annual drawing. Archery tags are the most sought after and depending on what units you apply for generally take 2-4 years to draw.
