What are some of the "not so normal" places you have ever hunted?

About 10 years ago i had permission to hunt (bow only) the Hartselle Airport. I was able to gain permission because the deer were always out on the runway when planes were trying to land. I never got the chance to sling an arrow at one but i did see a few.


I had much rather be tried by twelve than carried to my grave by six!!!!

A Reclaimed Water Pumping Station and Spray Field.
I would sit on top of the MCC and could see the entire spray field and Pond. Killed a really nice 7 point and 2 basket sixes from there. Saw a shore enough cod dragger about 700 yards out in the field but I wasn't that sure with the gun I was using to make that shot.


Hunt'em hard when they are hard to hunt but never, ever hardly hunt!

I hunt a military base and many of these areas (bow only) have buildings, tanks, and kinds of structures/equipment. It's weird, but the deer behave normally.


We were on the edge of Eternia, when the power of Greyskull began to take hold.

I've hunted a couple of neighborhoods I maintained. Rich people eventually get pissed when the pretty deer eat all their flowers and shrubs.


Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

I'm college while playing ball i was able to hunt my schools athletic fields inside the perimeter in Atlanta. There was a little shelter belt of woods that ran along a large creek on the back side of the property. I was only able to hunt about 100 acres of the woods. But the woods follow the creek for many miles so there is a lot of land inter connected with development on both sides. Imagine the mid west the trees follow the water but instead of crop fields bordering its neighborhoods and strip malls. I killed 11 deer in 2 year out there. I could watch my buddies get extra work in the cages, a girls soccer practice, and kill deer at the same time.

Also I hunt a piece of property in central florida that borders Disney. You can see the Epcot ball and the magic kingdoms fireworks from the property.

Done a lot of hunting on small little 10-20 acre blocks in residential areas. Hunting was good always threw me off seeing children playing, or people working in their yards while your in a tree.

Liberty Park golf course....with a rifle. First deer I killed in Jefferson Co in 1992 was on a fairway with a 264WM.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I hunt on an Army base. At times you can hear explosions, cars going by, people talking/yelling. I have about jumped out of my tree stand a few times from random loud noises breaking the silence of an early winter morning.

My best bow kill was from an oil pumping rig in Texas, I had watched this buck walk by it at the same time every morning from about half mile away. I set up on the rig and sure as schit he came by at the same time as normal. When he was getting close I drew my bow behind the rig and waited, he was so close when I shot him that I didn't even use my pins, I just looked down the arrow. When I shot him he just looked around and licked his side where the arrow went in, didn't run or anything, he took about 4-5 steps and then stopped and started getting wobbly in the knees, he fell over, kicked a couple of times and was dead as a hammer, 7 yards from where I was standing.

Don't know that you'd consider it a weird place, but I used to hunt a lease right off the interstate. I'd have to park my truck and then cross the four lanes of Interstate 59 to get to my tree stand. I freaked a few people out when their headlights hit some crazy woman running across the road with a rifle...LOL

Not a peculiar place - but sitting on the edge of a 200-foot cliff overlooking a bottom knowing that if I slipped it would be a very bad day.

When I was in school at Auburn a guy gave me permission to bow hunt a 15 acre piece along Moores Mill Rd next to the golf course (which they were building at the time). I never hunted it because it was not very big and "in town". The next year a 144 inch 9 pt was run over crossing out of that 15 acre tract.

Namibia (Africa) twice. It's weird hearing hyenas howling when you're trying to fall asleep or having elephants charge you in your rental car (in Etosha National Park)

Bud, we hunted Zimbabwe, Arda Camp. My tent had a broken front zipper and would not close. Every other night a big male Leopard came by out tent making a hell of a racket voicing his displeasure at our being there. I slept with a 375 in the bed with me and piled everything in the tent at the opening. PH didn't help much when he said Leopards don't "USUALLY" attack folks sleeping...and the old female lion that SILENTLY came into camp every night was prolly a bigger danger. Thanks loads fella....

While I was in college there was an old playground just through the woods behind our baseball field. Our coach would keep rye grass in the shed for our field. A couple of us would borrow a bag and plant it on the old playground. We had a nice little green field.
