I hunted on the Ben Mayo property who owns Mayo Knitting in Tarboro. Ben grows cotton, corn, peanuts, and soybeans. The soil down there is great, but the deer don' t have time to mature and grow because of hunting pressure, UNCC Grad. You will see lots of 12" to 14" bucks and will notice a small rut as there are so many does as you have already found out. Deer are ran with dogs on some areas and still hunt only on others, depending on the land owners. I really mis going down there on a yearly trip. It is just too far with my work schedule to join a club. The land is so flat that the wind seems to blow most of the time, but it does not seem to bother the deer movement. You can sit on a cut or fire lane and see deer at all hours of the day. There are lots of thick areas in this region that deer go to during bedding times and they cross these lanes all day long.
