SOUTHERN HUNTIN...

[NY Bearhunter]

JUST RETURNED FROM ALMOST THREE WEEKS OF HUNTING IN THE CAROLINAS', SPENT ALOT OF TIME LOOKING FOR HOGS IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND NEVER DID SEE ANY, HUNTED SEVERAL PRIVATE LEASES, DID SEE A TON OF DEER ALOT OF SMALL BUCKS MAYBE TWO NICE MATURE ONES, DID SEE ALOT OF BOB CAT, ALSO SAW ALOT OF DOGS LOST IN THE WOODS AND THEIR OWNERS RUNNING THE ROADS TRYING TO FIND THEM WITH ALL OF THEIR GADGETS, NOT USE TO HUNTING OVER PILES OF CORN AND TO BE HONEST DIDN'T SEE WHERE IT CHANGED MY CHANCES FOR A BUCK, THE RUT WAS STILL GOING WHICH HELPED ALOT. THEY HAVE THESE PROCESS CENTERS WHERE YOU CAN BRING YOUR GAME AND DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO EVEN USE THE WALK IN BOX FOR FREE, WHAT A GREAT SERVICE. MY FIRST TIME HUNTING IN THE SOUTH AND HAD TO MAKE A FEW ADJUSTMENTS FOR SURE. I DID HUNT NORTH CAROLINA AND ONCE AGAIN WAS IN CULTURE SHOCK BUT, THEY SURE PUT A HURTIN ON THE DEER THERE FOR SURE, NICE BUCKS GOOD SHOOTERS SAW ALOT MYSELF, I DID SOME DUCK HUNTING ON THE AM OF THE SECOND OPENER, HAD A BLAST GOT OUR LIMIT SAW A TON OF WOODIES DID GET TWO, I REALLY WENT THERE FOR THE BEAR HUNTING DID SEE A FEW BEAR BUT, THEY WERE TO SMALL, ALSO TRIED QUAIL HUNTING FOR THE FIRST TIME AT THIS BIRD PRESERVE, THE GUIDE HAD FIVE DOGS AND OFF WE WENT THIS WAS A ALOT OF FUN.

HAD TO HUNT THE BEAR SEASON IN PA ON THE WAY HOME DID ENCOUNTER ALOT OF SMALLER BEAR, WONDERING HOW THE PA HUNTERS ON THIS SITE DID, IT LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER RECORD YEAR FOR PA BEAR HUNTERS.

sounds like you had an adventure, the hogs can be very fun when you get into them. They tend to be nocturnal when the gun season for deer is in. A few weeks after things calm down, you start seeing hogs in the daytime.

AH C'MON...

HOW DID YOU DO ON YOUR HUNT ???

[seapower]

Didn't see any hog's, just not moving much. I expect that after a little while they'll get the acorn's eaten and will start moving to find more feed. Had a great week of scouting and wood's time. No cell phone coverage was just a bonus. Frank

YOUR RIGHT, BEING IN THE WOODS IS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT, THE TIME FIRST LIGHT COMES IS MY FAVORITE, SAW ALOT OF BOB CATS IN S/C AT THAT TIME. I KNOW IT WAS MY FIRST GO AROUND HUNTING IN S/C, SO I SPENT THE EXTRA MONEY ON AN OUTFITTER NOT KNOWING IF, THAT WAS A RIGHT THING TO DO BUT HE TURNED OUT TO BE A GOOD GUY BUT JUST COULDN'T PRODUCE ANY THING AT ALL, WOULD REALLY LIKE TO TRY IT AGAIN, MAYBE YOU COULD THROW ME A FEW POINTERS IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
