Drummer, I see you are from my neck of the woods. I assume you locals shoot at geauga bowmens. New here and trad, been meaning to get out there to a meeting and join up. Got a nice invite from paolo.  New addition to the family put the brakes on that for now. Went to school in muskingum county, love SE OH. Im gonna make an attempt to make it down there for a day or two and see what you fellas got goin on down there. Sounds fun.

Connon, yes I go to Geauga bowmen when I can (not as much as I would like). Come on down and hunt with us if you can. We always have a good time!!    

Hey drummer get denny's butt down here this year,

Yea, well Denny is more of a ghost then I am. I'll try but he is not a fan of growds or hunting on public land (from what i can tell).pure speculation on my part but I think he had experience at some point, ????

We got him to come to the GOS H

The elusive ghost has a torn rotator cuff and probably won't even be able to hunt this year  :( , and will be working 6 days a week up into Nov. without a chance of escape. Hope you guys all have a great time and best of luck!!! Irish did I read wife in a sentence you wrote??????
Denny

I hoped it would be healed up by now! any progress?

Yeah, Irish got hitched!

Yeah, it's improving but not something that just goes away without surgery.
Denny

Denny, I'm sorry to hear it's bothering you still. I knew you hurt it good but I didnt think it would still be keeping you from archery. I may know someone who mite have a crossbow you could borrow this season. I dont wanna hear any crap about it, thats what those things are for! I hate to think of you in the living room and not the woods this fall.

Fellas, I'm gonna come down for a day or two. Looking forward to it! I gotta warn you, tho. I'm new to trad this year. I'm hoping there will be a few daylight hours in camp where I can pick your brains and get some pointers. I do promise, however, not to be the annoying new guy in camp. Ive checked out the maps. The earth map doesn't match up to well with the AEP map on the site. I can't find the camp site on the google earth map and would like to do some scouting. Any big landmarks I could find to get me in the neighborhood?

With Google Maps search for this...

ohio power pond nb-43, oh

I was trying to get you gps coordinates or lat/long but apparently I'm dumber than the internet today.  The camp site is just east of that pond.

Look at Google maps in the road map version and look for the pond Kahn said. Easier to find that way.

I just typed it straight into google and it came right up.

Charlie, i thought you were going to try and get deeper into that campground? There's some good spots down there at the end of the pond. i know i'd have a stand there this year if i was going

I just meant we would go further back at that site for now. We did have a look around and some things might be a little different next year. There are some better camp areas with a huge pavillion to use as well in them. With the new 20,000 acreas they just opened there are deer that haven't even been hunted yet in years. World class bucks and old fat does! I never even hunted AEP before 5 years ago. There are areas I haven't even seen yet. Let's hope there are plenty more years to learn and hunt out there. It is truely an untapped resource. This year should be eventful!

Yep denny I got hitched in june.Going pretty well, not that it matters, I'm stuck for life. Lol. Hope your shoulder starts feeling better. I got a motorcycle a few weeks ago so I'll probably be at more geauga bow shoots next summer. My computer crashed so I can only get on from my phone. I hope we get a chance to talk again soon.

Irish what kind of scooter? I bought my three piece bow after I got my bike,       LOL

Its a Suzuki DR650 dual sport. Gonna be using it at the hunt and probably at the squirrel hunt.

Irish,

What are you going to sleep in?

May need a place to crash for the squirrel hunt but I'm gonna trailer it down to the deer hunt. I may need a place to crash during the squirrel hunt. Lol
