I was also picked for this hunt. Looking forward to it.CFL Almo 1st hunt no points, still waiting on Panola Mtn. For 5 yrs now. Maybe one day. Hunted piedmont with my pop for years. Great place to fill the freezer, very easy to get selected 1200 spots for each hunt. You can sign up for more than 1 hunt. I thought 1200 was a bit much but it never maxes out and easy to get away from the crowd if familiar with the area. Good luck.
Yeah I don't roam while I hunt I like acreage to scout and locate new areas. Away from the crowd. But I still hunt once I find "THE" spot. Ft Perry has a few too many driveable roads in my opinion but that's why I think it's great for youth.I see no need to roam on a youth hunt. Kinda dangerous. There are not a lot of oaks like I’m used to but I located a few sawtooth oaks and persimmon trees that were getting hammered. I stumbled up on a great spot that had a few big oaks while recovering one of her deer from 2016. It had some really good buck sign and a well used trail. We will check that out this year for sure.
Never been to Almo, but I had a neighbor who used to hunt there when it was the TMI club. They killed some nice deer. Good luck this year.
