Normally there are are 6-8 hunting, all family. We draw together about 80% of the time which is nice. My uncle will head down to camp one full week before the hunt in his travel trailer. Hunting is his yearly vacation. I normally arrive Wed night and put my tent right next to his trailer.

 

This year is a bit different. Only my uncle and myself drew Bull muzzy tags this year. His is heading up to our camp area 9 days before the hunt. I bought a new travel trailer in Aug, about one month after the draw result came out :D , for this hunt. We took it up for the first try out on the 14th and I was up there last weekend too. We still will be up on the Wed before the hunt but my trailer is already up in storage at the Happy Jack lodge!

 

 

I will miss camping in a tent........................but not that much :rolleyes: .

Curious about how early most serious hunters leave for hunt camp. What do you do?

I leave two days before opening day. One day to set up camp, and the second day for scouting prior to opening day. If I anticipate local squatters claiming "their sites" early, I'll leave three days early.

Cant leave your camp unattended for 3 days, but sounds like your talking about showing up before hunt. Couple days sound goods.

These old threads are super nostalgic. Lots of members that haven't visited the site in many years, others we know have passed for sure (RIP Bill)
