Went and scouted Thigpen this morning. Unit 8 is some Thick stuff. The place has an unbelievable amount of hog sign. I grabbed one of the flyers at the kiosk for Josh’s Deer Processing 334-371-3337. Looks like he’s close to the land for those needing a processor down there. Josh does a great job with deer. Very clean operation. But he will NOT take a pig. He's pretty adamant that it is not allowed and he can articulate why (it has to do with how the government doesn't differentiate between domestic and wild hogs and a "hog" is considered livestock so it has to go to an inspected livestock processor). I know there are processors who take hogs and deer, but I'm not sure they're right to be doing that under the law.

I hunted unit 10 three weeks ago. Saw a bunch of does & hogs. The week I was there they hunted 1,3,5,7,9,&10. Several guys killed does but no bucks. A friend of a friend is hunting unit 9 now. Said he's seen several decent bucks but no shooters.
Nomercy that southern rd that separates 9&10 is in rough shape. The creek crossing was pretty bad . Once you get past it the road is good. Pm me if you have any questions.

Copy that. Plan is to hang a couple of stands Thursday and hunt one of them.

Cleckler is good people! His buddy Griffin is as well. Enjoyed the dinner and the fellowship!
Today I hung 2 stands and put up a pop up blind on a plot that is barely coming up but had a lot of traffic. I hunted a hardwood draw and saw one doe at dark. Wind was bad for me and 75 degrees and even tho I changed clothes after hanging stands and walking all over, I’m sure I was stinking up the area.
I saw a pig from the ranger when I arrived at my area. Saw a flag and got blown at as I was walking in to my spot today. Wasn’t 50 yards from ranger.
Gonna take another stand in the morning and try to hunt til noon. Got a buddy meeting me after lunch so maybe we’ll have some luck.
Pretty worn out. Having a Crown nightcap and heading to that pillow!
Will post up something at lunch tomorrow.
