Letter Re: Choosing a State for Relocation
James,
To follow up on Mike
Williamson's recent letter on choosing a state for relocation,
the April 2008 issue of Outdoor
Life magazine
has a good article on the best 200 towns in the U.S. for hunters and fishermen.
The
towns
were
rated for:
Abundant Fishable Species
Abundant Huntable Species
Public Land Proximity (This may or may not be a good thing,
IMHO.)
Trophy Potential
Gun Laws
From 1 to 10, the top 10 towns rated were:
Mountain Home, Arkansas
Lewsiton, Idaho
Sheridan, Wyoming
Cody, Wyoming
Pocatello, Idaho
Lewistown, Montana
Marquette, Michigan
Dillon, Montana
Page, Arizona
Bismark, North Dakota
They also list an additional 200 more towns. You may or may not agree with
their ratings, but if an abundance of wild game and fish are important to you
now, or during a SHTF event, this is a good list to hang on to.
Both Field and Stream, and Outdoor Life have upgraded their
quality of late, and are well worth the subscription prices. Wait for the sales,
you
may
get
them for a dollar per issue. I am seeing more and more prep and survival articles
in both magazines. Perhaps the editors actually "get it"? I can't
say, but they're both worth a look. If you don't want to subscribe, check them
out at your local library. Best Regards, - Florida Guy
