Hey deer hunters. I gotta visit my mom in Vidalia on the 5th, and then go to Rum Creek quota hunt Nov. 8-10th. So somewhere between Vidalia and Forsyth I'm looking for a deer hunt. I'm considering Sand Hills WMA or Oconee WMA. Never been to Sand Hills and it's been 10+ years since I've been to...
Thanks for the reply. I stored these in my attic. Maybe the heat made the midsole fall apart. Did they just replace the tread or the midsole too? My tread is still fine.
I have a pair of Rocky boots with 400 gram Thinsulate. Great for those slightly cooler GA days. Within two or three years of buying them they felt really thin on the bottom. The tread still looks fine. But I feel pretty much every rock through the sole. (Hey, maybe that's why they call them...
.....deer on WMA's? I haven't hunted in GA in over three years and it looks like things have changed. Used to have to get a hunting, big game, and WMA stamp and the total would come to about $45. It looks like now I might only need the big game license for $25. Or do I also need the WRD Lands...
What if he paid several $1000's into the local economy, only kept the hide/head for trophy, and donated the meat for locals to eat? Does that jibe with your worldview?
BTW, last I checked, lions are not an endangered species.
I've been hunting public land for several years now and most of us make it work. I can't help but wonder why they put a 17 year old on the rifle. Never done a drive but it seems you should put your most experienced/mature guys on the rifles. My hunting partner probably saw this group. He...
Cedar Creek was jam packed. It wasn't JUST opening day. Their firearms season actually opens two days before the state season. So everyone was there, and his brother. But saying that, I'll probably do it again next year. The rewards outweigh the risks. And I do not usually encounter the issues I...
I was there from Thursday night until Saturday. I heard nothing about this while at the WMA. Everyone is talking about it right now and yet there are no reliable news sources reporting this. I'll wait for official word.
Hey guys, anyone have the sure enough skinny on whether the Piedmont hunt will still be on if the Fed stays shutdown? Ga DNR guy told me they would be. I hunt on public land only (for financial reasons) and didn't get selected for the Rum Creek WMA hunt that I always put in for. But got chosen...
Thanks, GH. I'm gonna go ahead and order some online. Beef collagen casings are going to be so much cheaper and it seems like I have to order them online, nowhere local to get them that I have found.
Hey all, I have about 25 lbs. of meat I need to make into sausages. I have found a local source of sheep casing which is what I use. But I need to find some Prague Powder or InstaCure #1 locally. Any ideas and would anyone like to split the "henk" of casings? It's supposed to be enough to make...
On the plus side you actually saw deer on Allatoona WMA. I know the general area you are talking about. There are several campers parked on the club that borders the WMA in that area. Maybe it was one of them?
