up north we have some dandy bucks. I also hunt in the SW. I think you see more in SW. and up here they are harder to see pluse we share them with the bear couger and wolves more than in the SW

I voted south too...but that's mostly because I don't get up north much. But even around here in K.C. we get some dandys too, I've popped one that scored over 100 B/C missed a couple bigger than that  and have seen quite a few that would be consider Wall hangers :twocents:

I'm pretty sure that the state record BT's are south of Olympia and from the Olympic penninsula. That said, I've seen some monsters in the Skamania area. There might be a little cross breading going on, but some big Blacktails for sure. I've hunted BT from near the north border to the southern reaches. From my younger days I remember an area east of Quinault that had some monsters. Access sucked and the place stood on end. South of Randle also had some big bodied deer.
