[QUOTE="eshorebwhntr, post: 606319, member: 17112"] Somewhere in nearly every state there are areas that produce quality animals. Generally speaking any area in any given state that consistently produces good numbers of quality deer are going to be a little tough to draw. UT has started to make changes in their management techniques that should return quality to the herds but that being said rifle tags can take you a long time to draw. But that can be true for just about any western state. AZ in a quality unit is almost a pipe dream to try and draw with the tag numbers allocated to non-residents. CO is probably the best option all around. Tons of good units with good deer numbers in addition to landowner tags that can be purchased and used to hunt public land. All western states have a few coveted/prized units that year in/year out produce some real big deer (220-240 type stuff). Those units can take 15 years to draw in some cases. If your serious about it, start building points in a few states and in a couple years you'll be in a good position to start applying for some quality units. If you want to go on a good hunt in an area that has the habitat and genetics capable of producing nice deer look at Region G in NW Wyoming. You can draw every 2-3 years and this year there was buck taken out of there that will go down as one of the greatest mulies to ever live. If you want to read more about it Google "Magnum" or "Non-Typical Outfitters" and check out the pics. I went this year with Greys River Trophies and had a great hunt. I killed a 165 and my buddy got a 186. It's not an easy hunt or a garaunteed deal, but I believe (from my research anyway) that it is the best option in the west for hunting every year or every other year and having a legitimate chance everytime you go for quality deer.
