[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 734887, member: 4319"] Yeah Dennis, you better hope for some cool weather. I drew in a few years ago in mid October and it was in the upper 90's, just brutal hot. Deer movement was minimal, but 3 out of 4 us still saw deer everyday and all of us had shot ops/missed except one guy who didn't hunt long, just hung out at the truck mostly. So even when it is bad, it is still pretty good. Most of the big boys were not moving in the heat though, only one P&Y was killed and right at dark.Driving back at night we saw some monsters. Hopefully an early cool front will push through for you. Hominy is a good area. Actually it is all good. When you get out and scout it is overwhelming becaus there will be sign and trails everywhere. It is also a tough hunt, especially early season. Everybody has there favorite areas, depending on who you talk to. But is all seems about the same to me really. Talk to a white hat and they will steer you in the direction of the kind of terrain you want to hunt (thick, big trees, fields etc.). Don't think you have to get off the road to see deer, those deer don't care about those roads at all, as normally there is hardly anyone driving them. I had a stand 50 yards from the road and saw deer everyday. They will actually walk the blacktop like a trail sometimes. If you know how to hunt hogs (I don't) you could probably kill some easy, they are all over the place down there. Some years a dead hog or doe gets you back in on a quality pass. It's a fun hunt just because of the atmosphere and all the wildlife. Turkeys are everywhere, as are all kinds of wildlife. If you are a turkey hunter, I'd start putting in for the spring turkey hunts there. I have never seen so many turkeys in one place. Don't know if you have this link already or not, but it has some good pics and harvest info. [URL="http://www.mcaapcontrolledhunts.com"]http://www.mcaapcontrolledhunts.com[/URL] [/QUOTE]
