I bow hunted this place twice before. The first time I had two does about 15 yds away one the side of the slope That I drew on but didn't drop the string because this hollow is deep and I doubted if I could get one out with my back problems.

The next time I hunted the hollow I didn't see anything but it turned out that a pack of coyotes was bedded about 200yds up the hollow and started their nightly howling ritual about dark.

After my last trip in I took my pruning shears and chain saw and cut a 4 wheeler trail across the land we lease that borders the mgt area to the mgt area line so I could use power to get anything I killed out of the deep, steep hollow I was hunting. Four wheelers are not allowed on the mgt area.

So far this is really starting to sound good.  I like it that you were thinking ahead with the four wheeler and all.

What's really cools is that I remember your thread about the ground blinds and this just seems to be the happy ending to a thread you started some time ago.

Let's hear more.

This thread is cruel.  Especially since some of you seem to have telepathic powers.

Take yo vicadin and get ta typin!!!

 You know those of us that ain't hunted in a spell need a little therapy too!!

A picture or two would be a kind thing also!
