Me and timber2 will be getting ours kicked off Saturday a.m. at 12:01. JK.
I guess I'll either be hunting a property about 3/4 of a mile from Troy University or my place in hurtsboro that morning.

Don't know really. Might look out over the swamp bottom and the beaver pond. Isn't a front coming through Saturday? Seems cooler this year, to me. I don't do the morning much anymore and it takes a few days to really get in gear for actual hunting. Whole lot to do from now until after Christmas. I do love it though. Be a bad day when I wont be able to go.


It be's that way sometimes.

Either in a blind watching a corner of a peanut field that gets a lot of traffic or a bottle neck in a big corn field that's a popular crossing. Haven't decided yet.

Depends on what the wind is doing that day. I have a couple options.

Headed to Tennessee Friday after work. If we get in at a decent time probably sitting on a plot Saturday morning and scouting mid day for the rest of the trip.

Gas line, road bed, or clear cut. Not sure yet. If I sit in the woods I'll just how hunt.

Finger of pines in a pasture with a ditch bottom/tree line in front of me/oak ridge behind me.
Im concerned about weather. Long range forecast showing rain here and that could change my plans.
Also got to address the question Will I shoot a doe if I see one?
Game day decision on that.

On the distance I like to walk to my stands:

Will be set up on a 3 year old clear cut. Green field behind me about 150 yards and hardwood bottom to my right that's pretty open for a good shot.

wind is supposed to be from the southwest so, in a ladder stand, watching about 100 yards of a trail between the thicket and a small pine planting, OR on a little ridge in a lock-on, about 50 yards off a powerline right-of-way.
things could change, though. i've got four days to mull it over.
northwest wind on sunday, so ...
