Update on Wild Things near Estill South Carolina:
Thank you all for the kind notes and especially thank you to Dave and Sue Ann for stopping by on their way to the Beach.
After over two months of work with a backhoe and bulldozer, the field and road work is just about complete. Fields are planted in Sorghum, soybeans, and browntop millet. I've added almost thirty acres of fields and a couple of miles of new roads. Measured roads on the property is now over thirty miles with many more miles of trails, logging roads, etc.
Some delays have occurred because of the nearly 100 inches of rain that we've had since January. Construction on the cabin will be completed around mid October with our first hunts commencing in early November. The swamp waters have just receded and we're working overtime to repair roads and get all the fields planted. Just in the last two days, about eighty tons of road fill has been brought in for repairs.
Everything is looking great with plenty of animals. I hope to have about twenty five ladder stands in place on an isolated section of the property(about 700 acres) that will be off limits to stalking, only stand hunting.
Will have several updates on the website by next week. Gracious thanks to Thom Jorgenson, Webmaster Extraordinaire, for his patience with me and his wonderful abilities.
Thank all of you who booked and to those of you who are considering booking.
