I am intrigued by the "ridge" . Are there oak tress up there? If so might be a good idea to check it out prior to next season for acorns.

Ever thought about a food plot in that SW "corner" of the "12 Pt. Buck Field" ? Looks like a 1 acre +/- food plot planted along that edge would be a good set up.

I guess the advantage we have up here, in the frozen tundra, is that snakes and alligators don't frequent my swamp

As far as the ridge there are two in the west central part of the property. You can identify them because the forest there looks darker and thicker. I marked one of them. There are oak trees. I plan to place a ground blind between the two ridges.

There is a ridge/hill on the South side of the swamp that is a REALLY high point for that area. I approach it cautiously as I think they may use it as bedding. Not sure though. I stay clear of its interior but hunt around it.

We have considered putting a food plot near that corner you mention. They seem to move through that corner frequently.

Love the back-and-forth too. Thanks for the input.
