Dang Joe, sounds like a good trip!

I hunted east central AL once with a guy from work who grew up in Dothan.  He and his family belonged to a club around Uchee (I think that was how it was spelled).  It was an awesome hunt even though I didn't get a deer.  I had two bobcats come under my stand to about 10 yards!

When is the rut in your part of AL?  Where we were it was in January and February.  I remember thinking how odd it seemed and then to see scrapes in that sandy soil just didn't look right but that is one of the great things about going somewhere else to hunt.  It's different yet the same if you know what I mean.  Their lease was paper company land and a lot of it was different stages of pine growth but they had some good hardwood bottoms with a lot of white oaks.  Lots of sweet gum trees too which were their preferred tree for climbing stands.  Looked like a telephone pole with branches coming out the top.

The whole time I was there I was "Damn Yankee" but it was all in fun.  I did learn to stay away from their "Ancient Age" bourbon whiskey or as they said, "The best danged cheap whiskey money can buy".

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

It sounds like a fine offer and I hope others get the chance.  If you are looking for a trad shoot, you might think about Cloverdale, IN in June.  Great chance to meet lots of trad archers.  Maybe you could hitch a ride with some of the Southern vendors that come.
