Theres some big bucks up there in the U.P. wisconsin and minnesota. The farther north you go the species are fewer in number but larger in size. My dads hunting buddy got a big 8 pt in the U.P. in the early 7o's that hung in camp for 2 weeks and when they got back home it still weighed 212lbs dressed weight.

I hunted the eastern South Dakota / Iowa border and did a little taxidermy there... amzazing size on the whitetails and big racks... corn fed all the way and they stoke up for winter... I saw one from 5 feet with my bow 40 years ago (never got him though) that I still dream about. He had crossed over from Iowa when their shotgun season opened. 8 heavy points on each side with an elk spread. His brisket looked like an angus steer. I'm sure they grow plenty big throughout the midwest where there is corn and cold. S.Dak muleys aren't as big as the mountain states and Canada... they eat sage brush. They will get over 200 lbs but really heavy racks just aren't common.
