STATES WITH MONSTER WHITE TAIL DEER:
I'm going to explain this as best as I can.... Minerals in the soil are the no.1 thing that helps create big antler growth.... Certain states will never be able to harvest white tail deer as Michigan, Ohio, Iowa, illinois, indiana and canada.... The nutrients and minerals are not in the soil say for example Tennessee.... You can find charts on the internet that show soil samples in nearby area.... Food plots do help provide adequate antler growth in area that you have harvested little deer, but you can grow corn, food plots, wheat or whatever, but the deer still will never reach the full potential of the Northern deer..... Some of the biggest deer I ever harvested in Ohio came from corn fields probably because they prefer corn or that crop is able to provide the most nutrients and minerals for the deer to make them mature faster....
