Was down there last year for the bow hunt. Hot, dry, big skeeters, big no seeums, gators roaming the woods looking for water holes. Loved it. lol

Ossabow is an island off the coast of GA
You can only access it by boat and they draw about 100 hunters for each trip
It's a 3 day primitive camp hunt
I've heard it's full of pigs and deer

Ossabow is one of the best hunts a fella can go on. I`ve been three times and it will spoil you. The first time I went it had a lot of Wild Donkeys on it.They would bray all night.
   Out of the three times i`ve been that add up to 9 days of hunting I killed a total of 4 deer and 5 pigs with the tradbow.I`ll try to dig up a few teaser pics for ya . Will get you pumped for sure.Get ready for the shower though the water is from a deep well and it is not heated. I took a shower in maybe 45 seconds....
