Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting An interesting Mississippi morning

Count me in on a group hunt. I'm from Forest...have truck...will travel.

MIGHT be able to host a post deer season hog hunt.

New poster here. Just joined when I saw this post and the number of MS folks on here. Always enjoy meeting more local hunters. I'm from New Albany but do a good bit of hunting in Benton and Tippah. Also hunt with buddies down around Marks occasionally. Just joined a duck camp in Arkansas this year.

Just noticed this post was started on the 12th about a morning hunt. I had a great afternoon hunt that day. Only been deer hunting much for about 3-4 years. Was always a duck and rabbit hunter. Killed a few does but never a buck. Got my first buck Sunday afternoon about 4:30 behind my house. 10 point with 20in inside spread. Been told by buddies that I am now ruined for life!

Welcome to the Campfire! Glad to see so many folks from Mississippi here!

Live in Woodville, in Wilkinson county. Haven't hunted this season, haven't even bought a license. Hunting's been rather poor in the area I've hunted for a while now, so couldn't get up any enthusiasm for it.

Nonetheless, I enjoy seeing a good deer or listening to the squirrels raise a ruckus.

Congrats on the buck sounds like a good un.

TATELAW, you're ruined..I killed 2 big gobblers(didn't know you weren't suppose to)the first time I went. Lots of miles, gas, hours, and a good many turkeys and I'm still ruined. Still my favorite after 45yrs.

Always hunted deer hard but after my first good turkey hunt around 25 years old or so spring is king to me! That being said I still am WAY more successful with a bow and stand than shotgun and decoys.

I too love the spring. Nothing like chasing those turkeys. I deer hunt a lot and Duck hunt in the Delta but I chase birds all over the country in the Spring.

I can certainly whip up some of those Deer Burgers if we all get together.

I've killed several bobcats throughout the years...and let many more walk. I've watched them try to catch a turkey, but never saw one stalk a deer.

Ebby, how come I've never heard of these famous deer burgers? Looks like you just nominated yourself for camp cook on the next trip.

Ha! I could make them more often if I could just kill a deer! I'm out of burger at the moment and can't seem to get one to step in front of the truck. I'll cook. We congregating in Kemper?

BTW I've killed a few Bobcats as well all before the age of digital photography though. I've also seen them jump turkeys but never deer.

Is it true that bobcat tastes kinda like owl?

I will never know if bobcat tastes like owl.

Well, you know what they say about enough gravy. Not to mention the proper wine to clean the pallet.

one of my old buddies cooked one and brought it to work. The guys we worked with thought it was a coon and they ate it up.(thank goodness I was on another shift) They were plenty pizzed off but not enough to jump that dude as he was a badass himself. They finally owned up that it tasted good...

Let me know when the get together is...I'm from Tate County and have known bull for several years when he was still in Tennessee. I live in Bartlett, TN, now but still hunt Tate Co.
