Big cypress!
Dang Dave what you hunting in that swamp?Id have to get moving I dont like snakes.
Dave,
Great Pic's (your bow earlier) where are you hunting in this picture?
That's a cool pic!
What a tree!!
Me and Malcolm Parker hunting the Delta National Forest for pigs, deer, and small game! This is a huge cypress down in some sloughs near the Yazoo River...Not as many like this one anymore...Big country in there....
wow. thats gonna take a big saw if they wanna cut that one.
Man, looks like an awesome place.
Huggggeee!
You're in a good place, Dave. I used to hunt the far back places in the Delta National Forest when I lived in Mississippi. My spots were in the sloughs feeding the Little Sunflower River. Usually had to winch a couple of times to get in and out but it was worth it. Big woods, ducks, beaver, and plenty of deer.
Good Luck!
Mike
Just hunted a 4 day trip just above Satartia along the Yazoo river. Plenty of deer and Palmettos.
they should be right on the verge of going nuts Possum. Hope you had good luck
You are right they were just getting cranked up. And I did manage to get my last blackpowder kill. Just no fun in guns anymore for me. Last year I went bow only and purpose to do so from now on.
Yeah the Palmettos are pretty thick in Panter Swamp NWR too...Hard to stalk in but you can hear critters coming for a long way if you're in a climber!
I plan to go back to longbows only next year but I will prolly still use a gun; I like to eat deer meat. lol hard to kill a few with a longbow only hunting 300 acres of heavily hunted land. We have a ton of deer though and a great group of guys. Would love for some of yall to come over in February for a squirrel hunt. I hunt at Rocky Springs between Utica and Port Gibson.
Guys,
I would love to participate in a Mississippi Trad Gang hunt if one could be organized, I 'd do my part whatever it may be to see one put together. I think it would a fun time around a campfire of MS traditional bow hunters :campfire:
hopefully if nothing else we can all get together and swap stories about the big ones that got away. lol
I've got two fresh stories from this year lol.....We should just pick a wma to meet during the last primitive season and hunt and camp....
sounds awesome Dave. I start a new job Jan 2 but will have weekends off and lots of vacation by fall 2013. :D
Tom, I just made a brand new set of squirrel arrows! I'm game for a good bushy tail hunt and I know Malcolm Parker would come too! I think I'm gonna start a new thread to see if there would be interest for all us Miss Trad guys to have a pig/deer/small game hunt on one of the wmas...watcha think....
sounds great. I'll sure do my best to come hunt at least 1 day.
Dave, sounds good to me a MS Trad Gang hog hunt sounds like a new tradition in the making, keep me in the loop and let me know wha i can do to help. I know as for the Feb time frame I have plans to be in McCalla ,AL for the Spring Fling.
