Moving to Northwest Arkansas
 
Hey guys i have not been on here much in the past few weeks, iam getting ready to move to Rogers becouse my wife got a great job there so we are packing up and moving. I have never hunted up there so im going to be lost for a while but i haved heared that there is good hunting up there. Any of yall live up that way????

Geez p-tone you would think you are moving to a foriegn country like new york!:D

i lived in my camper in the garfield area for a while a few years ago. i was working up there and really liked it. i saw lots of deer and some good bucks in velvet.
but i don' t know why your worried what is it like a hour to russellville from rogers?
you' ll just be like me now. i drive a hour and a half to hunt in my home ground.

Welcome to my world P-tone

I live in Rogers now, been here for about 10 years, also a transplant from SW Arkansas. You are right, the duck hunting up here SUX compared to what we are used to but the deer hunting is just as good once you figure out how they move around these mountains. :)

When will you be up this way?? Shoot me an email at [email protected] and we can get together for a cold beverage.

Is your wife going to work for WalMart?? My wife has been a WalMartian for over 10 years, it' s a great company once you get into the HQ, they still treat their store employees like crap.

Soark is right, it aint a bad drive back to Russellville, ' bout an hour and a half.

Bring your bow up with ya this friday, our club (Beaver Lake Archery) is having a two day shoot, Sat and Sun.

Sat is for traditional, women and children
Sun is for Hunter' s division and unlimited, both sexes.
Both are two rounds, 18 targets per round.

What is ANO? Are you familiar at all with the paint industry, I am looking for a good inside salesman in my Bentonville store.

I' ll email ya and we can get together, Gravette is only about 10 minutes away.

mr4pt is your club the one that is near garfield? i met some guys in a club near the lodge on whitney mt a few years back.

p-tone there are lots of jobs up there . i went to work for wal mart aviation as a mechanic. i loved the area but in the end it wasnt financially feasable for my wife to take any jobs she was offered. we would have taken a heck of a pay cut. and the housing market there ain' t cheap. like hot springs where i live now you pay!

oh and as they get older you' ll take those little vacations. i have three and i love them dearly but love the little times i can get away. the only problem is my 13 y/o thinks he has to go with me now. ahhh not to bad. i' ll just be glad when he can clean his own deer!:D

P-tone if you were near bluff city you were not far. go to white oak and keep going to the fire tower area. i have a club there of 2000 acres.

in hot springs i live near brady mountain. i hunt well........from my back porch!:D
well i could. but i havent hunted around here much . not near as many deer as the poison springs area. better quality here though.

Now in hobbs i saw some awesome bucks in velvet. in folks front yard! geez i could live in that area.

mr4pt i spent a little time at the lodge . my cousin was the maint. man there and i used to love to come visit. hear it' s closed now. to bad awesome view from the dining area.
