What county are you hunting in? We hunt harrison co.

[Shawn Leonard]

This year Scioto county, last year union! Shawn

[longbowben]

Have hunted scioto before never hunted union. If you can hunt behind the prison there are some monster deer their.

[Izzy]

Hope you fellas get on em good this year.

Good luck out there.  I've hunted Ohio for the last five seasons mostly in Pike, Ross, and Highland counties.  Deer numbers are down since I've starting going but I feel you still have a whole lot better chance at a really good buck there than you do in NY.  I've never hunted Scioto County but I've been there several times, my aunt and uncle used to live in McDermott.

Sounds like you will have a good time! Hopefully you get to put an arrow in one of those bucks this year!

Looks like we will be heading to Ross county just south of Chillicothe along the Scioto river November 3rd through the 12th. Should be a great time if the feral dogs don't run the deer off again this year. It was rough last year. Two years ago I saw 14 bucks in 7 days of hunting 5 of them would've looked great on my wall. This might be the year

Just got back last night. I have 3 stand locations set, entrance trail cut, one ladder stand location, one ground blind, and many climber stand locations. Deer sign still looks great. C'mon November!

[Shawn Leonard]

Ok Ross county, sounds good, I will be there and we will have several more stand sites real quick!! Can't wait bought my license last night!!

[NOMAD88]

I got some pics on the way

[Easykeeper]

Good luck!  Every year you see some nice bucks from Ohio.

View from the front porch.

 
The house where we will stay. It's for sale so hopefully it doesn't sell before our hunt. You can see how steep the terrain is.

[NOMAD88]

A good clear path to the stands is important for a clean scent free entrance.

I'm on my way there now...... Sadly for work. But good luck! Happy hunting!

[NOMAD88]

I use a bracket tree stand system that Shawn introduced me to from Cabela's. They no longer make them. This bracket has been there since last year and needed to be adjusted it's sticking straight out.

[NOMAD88]

One of many runs within bow range of the tree stand.

[NOMAD88]

Fog and wet conditions prevented me from taking a lot more pictures. I will take many pics in November God willing.

[Friend]

Sounds like a destination of antler filled dreams.

Wishing you a memorable hunt....

[NOMAD88]

Thanks ya'll. Here is the blind I constructed from scraps and salvaged materials.
