and a few are picking peanuts. my son went back to
Hat creek thursday to check his stand, he said that the creek is just about dry.

Just came in from checking a few stands, not much water in the creek. lots of deer tracks up and down the creek bank. seen a lot of tracks in the old peanut fields. have not found any rubs or scrapes yet, had a man tell me that he saw a big buck in the field next to my house the other afternoon about 3:00pm, I asked him how big was the deer all he could say was "BIG".

 

[scshep2002]

WOW Big in the field next to your house? Cant ask for more than that I think our land is now a parking lot lol Cleared the trees out like they were made of gold!! Sad sad saad sad and all before the gun season.

 

[Rabbit Runner]
