So, where will everyone be on opening day? WMA? Federal land? Private? Hunt club? I think I'm going inland a bit to bullard Creek WMA. Good luck to everyone!!!

I'll be working opening weekend....but the monday after that I'll be in the woods....probably on a WMA during archery season....and then safely on the lease once the rifles start popping off rounds.

archer47 · #18 07-18-2006, 07:13 AM

I'll be on private land in gwinnett cty. arrowing the buck ive been watching here lately.I hope.......

TJay · #19 07-18-2006, 07:25 AM

It may be Kentucky. The opener for archery is over Labor Day weekend so I could get in a 3 day hunt and still not miss the opener here. I am sure it will be hot as blazes wherever I am.

PChunter · #20 07-18-2006, 10:11 AM

Private farm, where I sit depends on the apples and the muscadines. I won't be hitting the hunting club until around october.

grouper sandwich · #21 07-18-2006, 10:33 AM

One of three places. Either private land in Decatur or Grady counties or splashing around St. Joe Bay for the last of scallop season. I haven't gotten a chance to go scalloping yet this year, so I may do that. But alot depends on how hot it is. Last year we had a nice cool snap for opening morning.

you got it, when gun season starts its crazy on WMA's. At that time I'll be at archery only Allan Creek WMA( not great hunting but safe).
A few years ago I went to a WMA in mid-Nov, I seen so many cars/trucks I thought I was at walmart plus the feeling I might need for a bullet proof vest.

lets all stay safe this year use a safety harness and also use your head.

HenryHunter · #23 07-18-2006, 11:52 AM

I'll be on some private land in henry county. Good luck to everyone and be safe this season!!

GeorgiaGlockMan · #27 07-18-2006, 03:03 PM

Private land setting on one of the trails that I cut through the thick stuff earlier this summer.

Don't have alot of good shooter bucks on film this year, but DO have alot of 6,8 pntr bucks and tons of does.

My place seems to be over-run.

I can't wait for gun season and other hunters to flood the leased timber land next to my place. Last year they did a really good job of running deer onto my place.

gadeerwoman · #28 07-18-2006, 03:19 PM

Private land. Haven't decided exactly which piece of property or which stand yet. That will be decided a day or so before at the earliest depending on weather, food.
