if you had choice to hunt boreal or parkland or foothills and if you had choice to hunt zone 500 or zone 228 or zone 334. what would you pick and why for whitetail gun ? i live in Florida i half to take your word thank you
For me, nothing beats waiting on a cutline north of lac la biche. There are no limits to the size of the next buck that steps out in front of me. Parkland is good if you have enough guys to do some pushes on some small patches of brush. Big deer in all three areas though.
Ditto on that. Expanding Farmland , a hundred years ago, made Whitetails what they are. Not too much Alfalfa or grain, in the mountains or Boreal forest.

2 years ago in Alberta i used Barnes x 140 gr 7mm i shot this 200 class buck hit him in front shoulder in front of his front leg it was a 270 yard shot the buck raised up kick his front legs like a mule kicking his back legs. i started jumping up and down to my shock the buck got up walk a few step fell down got back up walk off i for got to reload . that night we went looking for him we found small spots of blood the buck went and started making scrapes. there were blood spots on both sides of scrapes never found him i believe if i would have used a load that open up more i would have kill deer this bullet went right threw him
I would say if you're hunting in a place where you're shooting at 200 class deer....you're probably in the right zone......
boreal or parkland or foothills for whitetail ?
