I hunt in Camp Misery Hunting Club which borders Hickory Mound. Yes, there are plenty of bucks in there, and it should be easier to hunt seeing as it isn't 90 %standing water.Look for dropping acorns and/or persimmon trees. If you haven't heard yet, a local taylor county guy killed 7 bucks out of one tree last year during bow season. I killed a 3 & 4 pt during bow season last year, and missed 6 bucks with my bow(Faulty arrow rest problem). Rifle should be good also in Hickory Mound, because when we get to running dogs in the club some bucks migrate that way. No shortage of hogs either in there.
