Hi guys, I'm new to the site and had a few questions about Jennings County that I'm hoping somebody can answer. I recently got permission on a farm somewhere in Jennings County and was wondering what the deer hunting is like? Are there good numbers? Good numbers of mature bucks? Any MONSTERS taken from the area? Any information will help.
Thanks,
Sam

Welcome to the site. I am from Jefferson County and there are good numbers of deer and mature bucks. As for monsters I did see an article about a guy that killed a 190ish typical on his family farm in Jennings county. So they are there, but they aren't easy no matter where you are.

Jennings county used to be awesome. however EHD wiped the county out 2 years ago. Jennings County has been slow to recover from that devastating disease. On Occasion a good deer will come from that county but it is not near the trophy producer that Jefferson and switzerland counties are in that part of the state. Good Luck

I believe after seeing your picture on this site that it was you. I see a 195 1/8 under your name, am I right?
