I got an invite to go on a hunt in SC from a friend thats a guide. I really wanted to go, loved the idea of hunting August 15th but I couldn't swing it on such short notice. Maybe next year I will head down there and try to whack one of those pretty velvet SC bucks.
I hunt 100% with my climber, private land is tough to come by down here in MD so I only hunt public land. My climber keeps me mobile and as the deer move with the pressure I can follow them.
Here is a pic of my buck from last year, probably not a giant by a lot of peoples standards but for a MD public land buck he is real good and I was PUMPED. Made an awesome mount as well, his neckwas over 24", scored just under 120".
