I don't know........
How many hunters? Seeing 3-4 nice bucks on 350 acres is not bad at all IMO. Hate you didn't get a shot but thats part of the game.

You need to show me exactly where its at and I'll keep an eye on it for you since I'm so close to it. The "locals" over that way are pobably helping themselves to it.

Honestly ...I think you are right.....I do need someone close to kinda keep an eye on it...been thinking hard about that...we caught folks on it 2 or 3 times this year...once iin a stand and twice on camera...cant see thier faces though....plus they've rode thru the middle of our plots...that infuriates me....I really didnt have the time or money to plant this year and yet I did anyway....if they would just come ask me if they could hunt ...I'd probably come closer to letting em than them seeking on me....I'll never understand why they do that...I would never do that!!! I'd be scared they'd catch me!!
Do you hunt near there , grimes?
