[QUOTE="PiedmontGuy, post: 3268276, member: 31405"] Just remember that MCAAP is the largest ammunition plant in the world (bomb factory). So there are lots of rules. If you can suck in your pride and expect the rules to be enforced, then you will have a great time and probably see lots of deer. I keep applying every year and have been 3 times. Although I have seen stubborn, proud people that packed up and left during the introduction/orientation meeting because they didn't like the rules. Here's a view from google maps that I have added the lines to show where Hominy Region is located.[ATTACH=full]142390[/ATTACH] Each area has more than 10000 acres (I believe). The entire base is bigger than 40,000 acres. Did you apply as a group? If a group, how many? The 'rules' and procedures make it to where they want as few vehicles out in each region as possible, so if you are a single person hunting, then you will probably be forced to ride along in someone else's vehicle. They ask trucks with four guys to take an extra person with them. So almost every vehicle has 3, 4, or 5 people, which reduced the number of vehicles that the McAAP security team has to deal with in the field. Which also means if you scout on the aerial maps ahead of time or have a spot recommended, then you need to get there a little early before orientation and ask around for people hunting hominy that might be close to the spot your chose ahead of time, unless you are a group of 3 or more and usually you get to drive. Sometimes a group of two is forced to ride along with others or forced to allow others to ride along with you (depending on which vehicle you chose to come on base in. i.e. regular cab truck or crew cab). There will most likely be single people as hunters because usually there are quality passes from the previous year that were issued. That's a BONUS pass for the following year (same weekend) that are issued by the MCAAP team. Sometimes those are for does killed and sometimes for feral hogs killed. However, I think the hogs aren't much of an issue any longer because they started a trapping program there. [/QUOTE]
