This area product some big bucks last year ..
Do you'll think it will this year ? To me it seams to cycle ever couple years .

There are monsters killed there every year, just more some years than others.

Short answer yes.

This

A would say more this year.

There was probably some monsters killed in the nf by some old mans that has lived up there all his life and he didn't tell nobody.

I would say that you are very correct, sir!

I know that is the case in my area, as well. I have seen racks that were unbelievable taken from here near my house that were hanging in barns or nailed to a plaque and hanging in old houses.
As a boy, we had cows in Wilcox County from near Peachtree to Pine Hill. We used to dog-drive with a group of black guys that were some really good folks. I have seen them kill some GIANTS and chop the horns off with a hatchet and throw them on old pump houses or hang them in the rafters of a shed. They simply were not treasured or coveted like they are today.

There were more 140"+ deer killed on Black Warrior last year than all other WMAs combined. I scored a 167 gross 10 point a couple weeks ago and I'm supposed to score another one soon that is roughly 170". I green scored another one in the high 160s during season.

For most hunters in AL a 140" deer is going to a taxidermist. There have been countless deer that size brought by the checking station that were not even a consideration for a shoulder mount, if that tells you anything.

I sure it's more of the type rut we have ... That produces or not ...
Some years it seems short and concentrated , a hard rut .
Then some years it seems slow and drug out over two soft months ..

There's no deer in the Bankhead. Waste of time to go .
