Great Deer hunting. Rut usually starts around the 10-12th but can run long into February, Game warden is great and will work with you. Hogs not sure if they are in the NE part yet or not. But they are getting to the river and it wont be long until they spread to the east and west more. Were about is the land. I use to lease about 3500 acres close to Newport Rd off of Robin switch rd
Hunting Is my Obsession, My Passion, My Everything, Oh so is my wife.

Our place was in its prime on 03. We saw two 200" deer that year. One of them is on the wall, the other I missed...twice. It was the first deer I had ever shot at and didn't have anything to prop on. I got revenge on a decent 8 a few days later.
Since then, the hunting has gone down hill big time which I believe is a result of "doe management". Everybody around us was shooting 40 does a year which has made it hard to see a deer. 30-40 deer a day use to be common. I counted 19 bucks one morning and lost count of the does. Now 20 a day is doing good. I don't believe that thinning the heard in a area that has plenty of food makes any since but that's just me...I don't shoot does. Man you only see 20 deer a day? I'd really think about finding some better land.

Nothing personal, but how can you never shoot at a deer and know he was 200 inches? Like have you been studying them for years before you pulled the trigger, or what?

I was 12 or 13 at the time and had been hunting with my grandfather since I was 4 so seeing big deer run around wasn't something new to me. Up until then, I had not seen one big enough to shoot because I was trying to one up my brother by shooting one bigger than his first deer. I wanted my first one to be a big one. My grandfather, the one that shot the 200" deer two weeks after that, was with me when I missed it and he's the one that said the deer I missed was just as big as his. Could have been the same deer but I don't think it was.
