RE: When it rains.....it pours....
Only thing that scares me is.......I may miss an opportunity on another good buck (relative tot his area).....trying to find another one. I have areas that have produced. I'm just looking for different deer, I guess.
The part that intrigues me is the different styles I'll get introduced to. I've never been able to hug a bedding area real tight during the rut. I'll ge tthat chance, now,.....if I choose to. I'll also have access to trails leading to a destination food source. NEVER have I had that for ag crops.
If nothing else....it'll be new scenery.

Charlie....
I have, now.....600 or so acres I can hunt. I don't have time to scout it all....given I have two weekend days a week and a family.
When you go from hunting 80 acres to having access to that many.....it's a bit overwhelming. One parcel (the largest) is an hour away from home, too.
I think I'd rather learn them one property at a time. I'll probably spend more time on the local new find.......because it's convenient....and I KNOW a little about it. I'll be in it this weekend, for sure. I can shed hunt and look for some stand sites in a day, probably. It's gonna take a season or two to "learn" it.

I'll post up a photo of the land as soon as I figure out how.....and let everyone do one of those stand placement things!

You might want to line up a therapist now, for the upcoming season.
