Also he is working on another 650 acres for us for next year.
The new owners of the sold farm are A-holes they will kill anything, they where told of the bucks that roam it, but they want meat only..Oh well to each there own!!!
Well that sucks... sorry to hear about you not being able to hunt it this year... ya know the old saying .. when he closes a door a window opens... and hopefully that will hold true in your case...it sounds like your right , there must be something good running in there that they all want. Were going back over to Larry's in Brown County after the 1st gun season to kill some Doe's for Larry.. we had a blast doing it last year
Ya know Larry has 412 acres of his property for sale in Brown County... where I shot my 1st buck this year... its AWESOME property.. I wish I could afford to buy it
I really love that area , its so remote, rugged and beautiful, I figure one of the neighboring outfitters will proabably jump on it.
