Read the specific rules you got in your email but I think it is noon on Thursday.

Thank you. My email didn't say but it sounds like another email might be coming this week.

My email said it starts at noon for my hunt Nov 14-17

I’m hunting this weekend and didn’t get to scout day. From what I hear there’s not many acorns? What do you hunt if you don’t hunt acorns? I’m in units 1 and 2 if anyone has intel they want to share.

Try your best to find acorns but maybe find some trails in a few pinch points. If you can find an edge between thick pines and hardwoods maybe? I’ve never been there. Just throwing out suggestions

i have units 9 and 13 also .oct 26 bowhunt.we scouted 4-5 hrs .not a lot of sign found but hoping
acorns will be dropping by then . been too dry to look for tracks on the road .did find some sign in
the bottoms

Any luck this weekend on cedar creek?

I don’t think any were killed. I had an 8 or 9 I should have probably shot but his one side was really weird but looking back on photos I should have shot him probably.

When is hunted it a lot of the deer we're coming from across cedar Creek. They will wade or swim that creek like nothing.

No luck for me. I saw some does but did not see any bucks. I wasn't able to scout ahead of time though.

Hue How the hunt this weekend on cedar creek?

I had a pretty good hunt down there this past week. Saw a few 2.5 and 3.5 year old bucks that were borderline on the antler criteria and one good buck that stayed out of bow range. Saw probably 8-10 does as well and shot one with my bow. Only two other deer were killed there last week, a spike and an 8 point that didn't meet the criteria. Overall it was a fun hunt. If you can find acorns or a black gum dropping you will be in business. I found a few Nutall and Shumard oaks dropping and a black gum dropping right next to them and the deer were using that area frequently. If you need any info on units 1 and 2 shoot me a PM.

What happens if ypu shoot one that doesn’t meet the criteria?

What should happen is your deer should be seized and you are banned for life from hunting SOA’s.. that’s just me, but I’m a hard Ass!

I agree
