I think there are more deer in Ms and probably more rack bucks, but bigger, more massive bucks come out of la.


How do you figure that? I would think it's about the same.

Seems like the farmland and river Delta in north la produces heavier horn deer than the hillier, cliff terrain in MS. They may take bigger bucks in north Ms, but this has been my analysis. Not saying there aren't big bucks over there

I agree with him, and I think its' because of the rules. People can and do shoot spikes all day long in LA. In MS the minimum antler size for bucks is 12" inside spread or at least one 15" main beam near the Mississippi River basin, and something like 10" spread or at least one 13" main beam everywhere else (I think, I'm not sure about the second set of numbers).

Where I live at least (in LA) I know people just walk the swamp and shoot every damn thing they can jump up.
