I've never stepped foot on it. no one has had permission to hunt it until now. It is roughly 80 acres of hardwoods that backs up to a natural funnel between two peaks. pretty much only natural browse. Or The same 77 acres that I've hunted all season. only about 7 times, but the property surrounding me get decent pressure. It too is hardwoods, on a ridge. There are nearby pastures for grazing, about 500 yards away from where i can hunt. Let em' grow.

If you go to new one and see nothing then at least you had a chance to a new place. If you killed a nice ten point on either which would be more exciting and satisfying

I saw 9 does bedded under me almost all day. Bit did I have to pee. The rut is normally in full swing at this time at that spot. Nothing was interested in my does Let em' grow.
