Next year im going to lease some land and make it a trad only piece of property. Im just not interested in rifle hunting anymore and i have already talked to someone today who is in with me.

The land where i hunt is full of deer and to have it to be trad only would be a blast. Also we can legally kill over 100 deer a year down here so the action would be incredible without those rifles going off everyday.

More to come about all this i promise you that much. Just imagine 1,500 acrs and around 6 trad only hunters, man what a great hunt that would be.  :thumbsup:

Joe,
I usually hunt every year in Blount County, just off I65 near Hayden. Always looking for more property to hunt in the area. Send me the details on the lease and perhaps I'll be able to go in on it with you.   :campfire:  
Unfortunately I probably won't make it up this year due to medical issues with my father and mother-in-law. But if I do make it I'll PM you before coming and maybe we can get together.   :archer:  

Good Luck with the Biggins,
Hal

No catch at all as a matter of fact i just got off the phone with Randy Jackson and he will be hunting with me this trip.

Randy lives in huntsville and is getting ready  to make the drive to the cabin where we stay.
Wish us luck.   :thumbsup:

Great offer Joe. Must just be that times are tight for everyone. I'm saving $$ for a big 2010 trip, otherwise I'd be down to join ya'.

Somebody go hunt with the man. I've had a few phone conversations with Joe and I would pretty much say that theres no "catch", he's just an enthusiastic trad guy, and loves his vintage bows.

Looks like an out of state license is $275 for a year, $170 for a 10 day, and $120 for a 3 day.

Joe, if you're making one, put me on the short list for 2011. Maybe Rich, Bill, and I can make the trip. Sure would be nice to talk about it, been meaning to give you a call anyway.

Jim

By the time you make it down here im going to have a all trad hunting club. I have already talked to 3 people who are going to get with me after the season and we will make it happen.

With this economy theres land for lease everywhere down around where i hunt. Just think 6 or 7 guys with 1,500 acrs of trad only land. How much fun do you think that would be.

The key is i know a lot of people where i hunt and one guy is always finding me land to lease but with this economy we can only lease so much. We got lucky on one piece of property that is 1,000 acrs and leased it for 5 dollars a acr. Most of the land we have been hunting has been over 10 dollars a acr but it is prime deer land.

I know where there is 1,100 acrs that is pretty high but man it has some huge bucks on it and it also comes with a great 3 bedroom house with a barn. Im going to check on that piece of property only because i know what kind of deer it has on it.   :thumbsup:

I lost two of my small spots this year, a total of 45ac. This sounds awesome. Winters coming, the south is sounding pretty good right now.
