decided to head to the swamp for a walk today. I have not hunted since last week when I "looped" through a block last Friday. I had found a good feed tree then that I planned to go to this week but was able to keep my Grandson a few days and hunting will always take a back seat to that.
I got up this morning early and headed out. My plan again was to hunt Big Hammock WMA here in South Ga.It is a beautiful place and is where I killed my first pig.I have really not covered the place and only had a few honey holes I would go to sometimes but this year since it is only 20 miles from home I have decided to spend a lot of Winter hunts there to really learn the place. I like to explore places as the leaves fall so I can better tell the lay of the land.
I was gonna hunt the dropping chestnut oak I found last week but the wind was wrong so I went on to another Foot travel only road I had not been on in 3 years...
Lets get started..
I parked the truck and hit the trail. Very little people sign at the gate which is always uplifting. I made my way for about a half mile and came upon a Swamp Chestnut that had some "markings" of some kind on it. I`ve never seen anything like it. Let me know if you can figure it out...I can`t..
After that I crossed a wide dry slew and came upon an Island that at one time was a money maker..Illegally ..
Wonder if a Law Man busted those jugs??
Crossed on over the Island to another dry slew and a cool looking tree..
