I've hunted the Shawnee Nat'l forest in 2006 and again last fall. I wound up shooting an 8-pt. last year that was waaaay smaller than I had thought when I let the arrow fly. There are a ton of deer there. I've hunted 9 total days there and only once did I not see deer from a treestand. I never saw a true monster but my buddy did and didn't get a shot. We saw a group from Georgia that killed a 150 class buck not far from where we were. The hunting way outclasses hunting in Alabama. I'd go every year if I could but can't make the trip this year. Maybe next year.
