Guru, that's the New New Piece. Bears tore down the New Piece stand so Marty named that one the New New. Easy to get confused eh?

As far as writing a book, Marty can't read, Joey can't spell (Ole Miss Grad) and I can't remember half of the stories. We're a pitiful bunch...

Thanks buddy, all the names and places...too much for my "yankee" brain to take in.....

 "The Pitiful Bunch"....there's your title!!!


The next morning again found us by the fire, then it was onto the buggy.  Today I would hunt the "Hog Trap". Marty mentioned that a real good boar hog was hitting this spot, but he also said that a couple bucks were also using the area. One he talked about was a 7pt that he said was a "nice buck, but needed another year or two".....

Again dropped off with feet of my stand and up the ladder I went to wait for daylight.

 A half hour later, I sent a text to Marty..."your 7pt is here".....then 2 more younger bucks showed up.....the next 2 1/2hrs were filled with non-stop action from the bucks(and a coon). The 7 and a 6pt sparred on and off the whole time I was in the stand. and didn't leave till Marty and Biggie came to pick me up...

Enjoy......

Great story and pics, those bucks look like they're at the beach. Do their necks ever swell up?

The feeder hadn't gone off for me that morning, so when the boys showed up, Marty checked it out. After fooling with it for a while, it was discovered that a stick had somehow gotten inside and screwed up the works....you can see the stand I was in in the backround. Those deer didn't know I was in the world....

"My Biggie"....this is a great picture that really captures the biggster...

Then we were off to check out a couple other stands before the rain set in....

Think there's a few Osceola's around????  (Biggie was bombarding me with corn as I snapped the pic)

I was amazed at some of the places we went thru with the buggy....this water was 3-4ft deep!
•    

This is what happens when you go thru a trail that hasn't been traveled in a while. Marty saw a couple deer as we passed a trail off to the right of the one we were on, so he turned around and headed in to try to get a look at them.  This is only a few of the buggers....they have a web so tough I swear you could stitch something with it. Not fun to get out of once tangled up in one.
Then you have to figure out where the spider is!!!!
•    


Another spot that was very, very deep...not even a challenge....
•    


Then it was back to camp for another fantastic late morning breakfast. Just as we got back the rain set in seriously!!  The cold weather was coming!

A couple Sitka guys...wadda ya think Peter?
•    


Earlier when I talked to Gene, he mentioned Biggie's favorite spot...he was right on of course, I had to take this for him....

Sounds like you all had an excellent hunt, couldn't ask for much more than good friends and plenty of critters...

Curt, congrats on the awesome hog brother!  Marty, congrats on the doe, and Biggie congrats on the "called" head shot on the Coon...  I'll take your word for it!  ;)
