muskrat Report post Posted August 2, 2009 A friend (a member here as a matter of fact) was kind enough to offer to take me under his wing for this hunt, as I am not very familiar with the Unit. A couple of years ago, I poked around the Hewitt Station road pretty extensively during archery season, but that is about it. Even though I have a coach, I want to do my part also in learning as much as I can about this hunt. Any advice, tips, or other information are appreciated. Not looking for spots - just strategy, habits, your past experiences, etc. Thanks! Marshall PS - I have a funny feeling about this tag - maybe I'll finally break the curse!

jonesface Report post Posted August 2, 2009 I have found whitetail to be low in this unit. Around the 3500ft. Look for sign and glass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eagle Eye Report post Posted August 3, 2009 I have the same hunt. This will be my fourth year in a row having that hunt. They are there, i'm sure you will bag one if you do some scouting. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muskrat Report post Posted October 17, 2009 Well am looking forward to my hunt. At least one member offered to tag along, but not sure how schedules will jive. When he's not with me, I'll probably be alone, so if anyone wants to pair up, let me know. Otherwise, good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loco4coues Report post Posted October 18, 2009 Between my brother,my dad and I we have scouted out quite a few bucks with some being over the 100" mark. We have also scouted a few areas that yielded nothing more than does and spikes. We are pretty pumped for our "plan a" spot, I will keep you all updated if we have any luck next weekend.

Dann81 Report post Posted October 22, 2009 My two Brothers and I have the Oct-nov hunt too. This will be our first hunt in this area (usually get unit 23) so it should be interesting. im wondering, where do people tend to camp? I have no problem camping close to people, but am a little worried about the amount of hunters in the area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ac guy Report post Posted October 23, 2009 Camp anywhere where you can access the wilderness and hunt there. You won't see anyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
