That is my biggest fear also. I will love Gods country so much that I will leave NY behind forever.
I am in no rush but would like to do it by 2022 , being employed with a job with only gives 3 week vacation in a yr I cant take too much time scouting.
Short term I will apply for the PA lotto but will keep the plan in motion for some place west. I would prefer to bow hunt but given that I wont be able to go every yr will try my luck with Rifle for the first time around.
