We have a group of 6 going on the January hunt. Last time I went I saw quite a few despite it being my first time there.

Our group of four is headed to Ossabaw for the February hunt.
Looks like the bugs and snakes will be out in force.

I haven't seen any threads from the January hunt, anyone have a report?

Weather was warm and the full moon didn't help but there was a good deal of hogs taken. I'd guess about 50 but only half the hunters picked showed up. A few of the areas on route 2 (41, 42N & S) will probably still be closed due to the causeway being damaged. 16 and 17 on route 1 were also closed.
 
I'm going with a buddy of mine, his first trip. I'm looking forward to the camping and hunting. I did a P/W hunt a few years back, I'm curious to see what damage was done by the storm.

We're headed out today. I'm with 3 buddies. We're in a 23' scout. Weather looks bad on Wednesday. This will be my 3rd trip. So excited I'm already awake. See ya on the island and be safe.

Cross threading is better than two lock washers.

Good luck! With those winds on Wed I would camp away from the creek.

Couldn't make it happen yesterday. 2 deer so far this am. Everyone is saying there seeing more deer than hogs. We've saw 5 deer and 30+ hogs. No wind today and the gnats are bout to tote us off.

Well our group of four was down to three but we had a great trip and as always met some great folks. I didnt get the final count on hunters or hogs but both numbers seemed way down. Despite the forecast for rain the few drops on Wednesday and Saturday didnt even settle the dust.
Enjoyed hunting with you Hunter /MAson on the truck route. You guys are killers.
