My move to Georgia ......real close now, almost there!!!
« on: June 23, 2018, 09:43:51 AM »
Been wanting to move south to be near my daughter and her family. Well my family responsibilities here are now done and I'm going to go south shortly to look for a home. Looking forward to the hunting opportunities that are in Georgia and in near by states. New York has some beautiful country but I will not miss the lack of game management and liberal thinking that is here. The ability to hunt and fish, kayak, ride motorcycles longer during the year is so inviting. I'm excited.............. :campfire:

Good Luck Ron.., I know you have been looking forward to this a long time.  The thing you will miss the most in NY is your friends, I can relate.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Well Ron, I seem to be short 2 bows from the move, seems they may have been misplaced in the mail. They were both very special bows but I do have some space on my rack at the moment.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Thanks Ray, I will never forget the meals you fed us at Hog Heaven, and I will give you a call one way or another. Looking forward to the move.

Not a bad choice, I lived in that area from 1987-2014. Gwinnett County  had (probably still does) and extended archery in January so you could bowhunt from the middle of September through to January 31st with a massive season limit on Whitetails.
  If you fish there is Lake Lanier which is full of big Spotted Bass and Stripers, as well as that weird good eating fish that only the transplanted Yankees know how to catch, Walleye. If you fly fish the tailwater fishery below the dam is stocked Rainbow water but the Brown trout in the Chattahoochee are wild. There is a group of fly fishers that specialize in catching extremely large Browns swinging big tandem streamers on  7 & 8 weight rods, they don't talk about it much but if you are interested you can find them. Several Wildlife Management Areas within 2-3 hours drive have good Hog populations as well or you can make a drive South and be all in it. When you get there put in for a gator tag every year and rack up your points.
Lefties are the only ones who hold the bow in the right hand.

Welcome to the heat and humidity Ron!! Lots of options for hunting down here.   I have a traditional only hunting lease west of Atlanta, give me a shout if you want to check it out once you get down here...
