Interesting theory. A lot of the strip mine land in various areas does produce big deer.


Arent most of them in pretty rugged terrain??


“Rugged” doesn’t begin to describe lots of the hills/hollows of that area!!! Folks that kill big deer around there really earn them. I’ve got some good friends that hunt around there and I’ve gotten to hunt a good bit as a guest on their places: it has whipped me every time between the rough terrain and swirling winds!!!
