This is going to be my first year hunting Meriwether County. After a couple tough years in Talbot Co, my club decided to fold (we had 8 members, 275 acres). I know Talbot is still great deer county, but after a great few years, our property slowly got worse every year until we nearly never saw deer.

I will only make it down to Meriwether 2, maybe 3 times, and the piece of property I am hunting is tiny (10 acres). My family who owns the property has very good success every year in the surrounding area where they are part of a another club.

Nonetheless, I am very thankful to my family who is letting me hunt their land this year, and I hope to harvest a healthy doe to put in the freezer. Hopefully in my time down there I can run across a new club and find somewhere to join!

Here's the latest update...water oaks are loaded this year and already a few on the ground...spotty white oaks...most of muscadines are already coming down...persimmons are about average with some already starting to turn color...my trail cams are showing the biggest bucks that I've ever had this early...looks promising

Lots of movement! I've seen a bunch of deer in only four hunts, took a good doe sunday. Good movement in the afternoon, not bad in the morning, most of my sightings have been 7-7:30 pm.

We've seen some scrapes also! got a good 8 on camera. And i'm seeing real good movement around my house on lake lanier, I have two does with fawns in my yard daily and my wife narrowly missed what she said was a huge buck the other day when she left the house for work.
I took a 90 lb doe last week that was fat, fat , fat

I missed the biggest buck i have ever seen opening day only to find out my scope mount had come loose.

But I did see the big one i missed 2 great 8 points and a 5 point.

One of the 8 points was sniffing a doe across the field and continued to follow her. Maybe a little pre rut action going on

Opening weekend we saw a lot of deer, last weekend NOTHING! Scrapes and rubs everywhere but no sightings.
Meriwether Sportsman Club, beware, a local is wandering our properties, he ran from me Sunday morning.
