Best state for trophy whitetail or Canada?

(1/5) > >>

trophyhunt:
I figure I can do some research, but with so many guys/gals with experience on this site, I thought I'd come here first.  If I was to reward myself with the best chance at getting a real trophy whitetail for my retirement, where should I look?  Always hear the Saskatchewan area is best, but I'd rather not go through the hoops involved with Canada.  Staying in country sounds good to me, but will consider anything for a 180+ class buck.  Mule deer seems like it would take too long to draw for a real trophy, otherwise I'd really go for one of those, I figured a whitetail hunt would be easier to obtain.  Anyway, just thought I'd throw this out there, and yeah, I know a 180" for whitetail is a monster, realistically I'm sure a 160+ would work but I like to dream!!   Thanks all
Edit:  I realize what the internet has done to hunting and in no way would I want or ask for people to post specific units or areas.  General info and PM’s are great!

If I had the choice to go for once in a lifetime trophy mule deer or whitetail id go to Canada, spend the $$ on a quality guide and enjoy your time. Depending on time of year or weapon type you want to do but I think you would be happy for the quality of bucks you would have an opportunity at harvesting up north but thats just my opinion

trophyhunt:
I’d stick with rifle, and would want a late season rut hunt for the most fun and opportunity

tonymiller7:
I'd go to Saskatchewan or Manitoba.

You couldn't go wrong with a guided wt or md hunt in Canada imo... Could hire a guide and do a md hunt in the states if that's an option... If it is I'd look onto Utah... Nevada...
