I am not an urban hunter but there is no arguing ,there are big bucks to be had in urban areas! this buck was killed near my home last year, in a lot, next to a school being built. the story I heard , ( so take with grain of salt ) the construction workers brought a forklift over and helped him load it up.
any how ,whatever the story is, big congrats to this lucky bastud!

I’ve hunted a highly organized urban deer hunt for a few years in Duluth Minnesota. The only advice I can offer is don’t be afraid to hunt where the deer are, know all the laws regarding hunting in your area, and be as proficient with your weapon as you can be.

It seems odd hearing kids, vehicles, seeing guys grill out, or even having the landowner talk to you from their car setting in the driveway, but the deer are there. I killed 3 in a city program this year. Most I seen at one time was 9. Another guy hunted the spot 2 weeks later and had 11 walk by before he shot a doe.
