Unbelievably this is 2 in a row for me! Each year is getting better. I almost got to draw my bow last year.  :)

I drew Hominy in Oct! Sorry I will already have the biggest buck in that area harvested before you get there  :D  LOL I am glad to get to go I have blanked out on the draw for years I wondered if it would ever really happen.

Last time I hunted there we had one the most wanted bucks trail a doe in the ditch beside us as we went in to scout and hang stands  Cody probably will kill the biggest one in Hominy and a couple hogs too!

Jim congrats - we drew Hominy the last weekend of Oct. I've been there a few times. Give me a shout and I'll point you in some areas where we have taken a few in the past.

Jim, I'm in the weekend after Tommy, and the weekend before you.  We'll have to get together and compare notes!  I'll definitely give you a report after my hunt!  :wavey:  

I'm pumped!

Ok sounds good! Too bad we didnt get the same weekend. I have some river cane arrows that fly amazingly well. I'm leaning toward my selfbow.

I have some 200 grain Ace heads that I may use. I have several rivercane arrows with 160 grain grizzlies too. Hard to choose. Two, two fletched arrows, one with trade point and one with flint.....hmmmm.
