It's that time of year to get our fall plans in order!
The annual Ohio Traditional Deer Hunt is moving to October this year due to some other obligations in November.
Just a little picture or two to refresh our memories
*************************************************
DATES:
October 19th - 23rd. I will be setting up on Wednesday night and breaking camp on Sunday evening. That means we will have Thursday morning to Sunday evening or afternoon to hunt.
*************************************************
LOCATION:
Go to the site listed below for the map of the AEP area. Look for Campground K off of SR83 & T13. It is surrounded by public hunting with no reservation required. You just have to sign in when you get there.
Here is the link to the map;

PERMIT:
You will need to download, print and sign your free permit to be legal. You need to keep this with you while hunting. No need to send it in anywhere.
Go to this site for the permit:

FOOD:
I am hoping to provide meals and serve as camp host this year if I have been lucky enough to get a couple deer early in the season. However, we all know my luck, so plan to bring your own food or even some to share with others. On Thursday night I am planning to provide bear stew for all those who are in camp if you want to partake. I will keep you updated as to whether or not I can provide more dinners. Possibly we can have volunteers this year for each night to help out with/provide dinner? Let me know on that idea.
***********************************************
FIREWOOD:
Bring cut up pallets or other wood that is from areas that are not infected with the wood borer. For instance, it is safe to transport wood from the same counties we are hunting in Meigs, Guernsey, Noble or another non-quaranteened areas of SE Ohio. You do have to cover the wood during transport.
***********************************************
SHIRTS;
T-shirts will be black with white logo and lettering. Here is the design for this year. I am thinking about a full back with a small lapel design as well.
Here is the design for the shirt this year;
FRONT LAPEL AREA OF SHIRT
BACK OF SHIRT
I know the pics show black on white, but the shirts will be opposite! Get your order for a shirt to me ASAP so I can get the order submitted in time. Cost should be the same as previous years roughly. PM me with your order.
*************************************************
AMENITIES
There are outhouses in the camping area, but no electricty. There is also a pump to draw up well water. You are permitted to bring a generator if desired. Obviously, you need a tent and sleeping bags. Also, bring some field points for fooling around or practice!
**For those of you who have been to camp in previous years, I would like to set up further back in the camp grounds. This will allow for everyone to set up tents in closer proximity to each other. I am looking at having a sign made up that will hold up better than the ones posted in previous years.
Look forward to hearing from you all!
