yall must not hunted the mountains in Jackson County. If you killed 15, 20, 30 in a year in those mountains you'd be the strongest sumbuck around!
North Jackson County? That's a different story. I watched a really nice 8 pointer walk across the level below me and let it keep walking because getting it out would have been really rough. My buddy was sitting further down the same ridge so he would have helped me get it back to the truck. I passed anyway. 15 minutes later from my buddy's direction... BOOOOM!! I should have shot it myself, while it was closer to the truck. It took between 4 and 5 hours to get it dressed, dragged and loaded. Most I killed in a season there is 3, two of those were near the road. We had a lease in Russell county that was pretty flat and had a really good road system. It was rare to not be able to get a four wheeler within 50 yards of any downed deer. I filled several freezers there most years.
