i remember it 82 was first time i ever stepped foot on a wma i was 5. we left guntersville 4 deep in a 77 chevy custom deluxe at 2:30 am. Back in those days you had to stand in line and draw tags out of a box. there was buck, doe , or either sex tags. i still believe the only reason they took me was to get an either sex tag(warden kept some in his back pocket for kids). I remember walking for ever behind my dad and setting on a ridge when it got daylight it sounded like a war. i saw my first deer that day some does come by i was begging my dad to shoot one i will never forget he said if i kill that moma that will be two or maybe three you wont see next year. That place back then was another world, yeah we didnt ever kill any real wall hanger bucks but to a young kid going in the woods seeing deer ever day made up for it. I often wonder if the reason youth dont hunt like i did when i was a kid was the dont have the oppotunity to watch alot of deer when they go.
