Judd is an ICON in the whitetail world. He knows deer, has big deer and has a lot of deer. I killed a nice deer that scored right at 150, and we had a 155 killed by my buddy. He also had an encounter with a 175+ buck. Judd produces both bow and muzzleloader/slug. The old farmhouse is rough and food isn't great, but the hunting is. That is the only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5.

Colorado Hunting Information
Colorado is one of the best western states for trophy mule deer hunting and has the largest population of elk in the west.
Iowa Hunting Information
Iowa is one of the best Midwestern states for monster whitetail bucks. Non-residents must apply for a tag in their annual drawing. Archery tags are the most sought after and depending on what units you apply for generally take 2-4 years to draw.
Utah Hunting Information
Utah has recently been outstanding for trophy elk, but the best tags take many years to draw. Utah does have conservation tags available for purchase that allow hunters to bypass the drawing. Given the high demand for these premium tags prices can be high. In the past Utah has been a top trophy mule deer state but recently only a handful of units consistently produce B&C caliber deer.
