Lots of big deer but the terrain is very steep. We hunted Scioto county and then drove to Tranquilty Wildlife Area in Adams county for a few days. Big deer there for sure. The cost is 150 for the license and an either sex tag and a doe tag. I think you can buy up to 2 more doe tags if you like. We came at the tail end of the rut, there was a group from Alabama there a week before us that did well. A 130 class 10 point and 2 nice 8's.
