Thanks for the replies and good luck.

KG: I found some info on the John Eberhardt DVDs and an excerpt from an article he wrote (it was actually linked from the Scent Lok company website)...He said something to the like of: "If you don't have to get to your stand with waders, a canoe, or on your knees, etc...it's not worth hunting" - I love it!

Adam: I'm up in Madison/Delaware counties, although I also hunt the firearms opener in Martin County, and occasionally make it over to Jefferson County for "late" early archery. I've got a lot of family who used to deer/turkey hunt Morgan-Monroe back in the 80's/90's.

HuntingBry: Thanks for the words. I suppose being a tactician and a potential action hero (inmy own mind) is one of the things that keeps hunting new every timeI go afield. I had some friends who used to get pretty creative hunting land they shouldn't have (mostly off-limits corporate/government acreage), but really going "ninja" in the scenario of mixed private lands is motivating and hopefully rewarding. I've taken deer off the ground with a bow, but I wish I had a little better vision because I think still-hunting could help in these tactics. Looking forward to hearing your stories through the season.

Thanks again for the welcome
