I live in Ohio! I have hunted just about every way u can! Backpack, basecamp, outfitted and now im lucky enough to have private ground! I've bowhunted every year with the exception of last year when I ML hunted CO. and was succesful on an elk and a bear. I have only hunted CO and MT but plan on hunting most others eventually! heres a couple pics!
