I’ve been stewing on it all day, but I’m not going to back down. The guys are installing the fence at the first of the year. I’ll hunt a ground blind with the boys for the rest of the season. I’m going to make a path along the perimeter fence wide enough for a SXS, block all the egress points...
It’s been pretty eye opening. We bought a horse farm and a few houses, some that were down right rough. Within a few weeks there wasn’t an air conditioner left. Within a few months, almost every house had been stripped of wiring, plumbing, and anything of value. People have dumped truckloads...
My 10 year old son asked if we could go hunting this morning, so I woke him up at 5a and we headed down to try our luck. Got there before light and walked in carefully only to find someone has taken our two person ladder stand. Of course, I left the ground blind at home since we were going to...
All in all, it was a good time with the boys, even if we did run all the deer off with wiggles and loud whispers. For their first time out it was to be expected.
“Hunting Camp” was not quite the right experience, but it was what it was…
We did walk in this morning to find a truck parked...
Went down to the property a couple weeks ago to scout. Found a platform stand that hasn’t been hunted in a long time, but was able to
Clean all the briars and vines off. Did stop and talk to one of the folks we bought property from as they have a couple months left before they have to be out...
Yes, I will definitely have a printed letter granting permission on our letterhead. It’ll be my project starting this fall, so in a month or so, I’ll be signing all documentation on it anyway once it is out of acquisitions.
Yeah, I have a friend who lives nearby and is familiar with the property. We’ll likely chat some more.
I also have full surveys of the land with LiDAR topo at my disposal.
Heh, I don’t think people need to know how to read to be pissed about a developer coming in and buying up land. I’ve seen it before where a friend of mine used to have a hunting lease on the land that was bought up by a group for the Baxter Pharma site. In their eyes that land was “theirs” and...
I’m hesitant to share the exact location as we are still closing on the last pieces and may keep the option to buy more on the table. Enough to say it is South of the city.
So, I talked with our SVP and he is okay with me hunting some property we have assembled. The assemblage is about 375 acres and about 1/2 of it is wooded. We will likely break ground on construction some time next year, but only on about 1/3 of the property. It will likely only be me, my...
I remember as a kid going hunting down near Sparta, GA. My dad and some of the other guys built a stand on the edge of a planted pine field that became known as “the airplane stand”. I think I hunted it once, but I remember it being a workout to get into it. Back then we would just nail 8-10”...
