Well I hiked into the area between the swamp and apples this weekend, and as I got close to it, freakin posted signs everywhere.......
Well, if it's private property and the owner want's to keep people from hunting it this is where I'd post the land. That funnel just sreams out to be hunted. I'm glad you found a spot down between the ridge and the road. I'm willing to bet that'll be a hot spot. One thing I've learmed from hunting big woods and consistantly seeing good deer within 100 yards of the only major road in the area is that deer love them for an escape route.
You'll have to keep us posted Rick. I'm curious to see how you make out.
