Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting 2017 Alabama Deer/Hog hunt

Hadn’t really thought about hanging a deer up either.

I’ll have some rope. I plan on quartering/gutless method in field if I get one.

My favorite method also. I’m bringing an extra cooler and ice

Riained like hell yesterday from Alexander City to Birmingham, and most of the night. Accuweather is not showing more for now. A lot of my gear got soaked riding in the bed of the truck. 😱
If the forecast changes to more rain, I will be iffy. At worst, I will drive up for the day Thursday and visit.

A little more rain today then I think we are clear for the weekend at least that’s what the forecasts are showing right now. I’ve held off packing my truck bc of the rain, will pack a few things this afternoon then the rest tomorrow morning on my way out.

Shows 0% precipitation for Moulton through Monday.

Yep. Looking better. The cold is nor an issue, but I really breaking camp, and loading up in rain. 😜

I have to work until 10pm Thursday sadly. But I’m thinking about coming on as soon as i get home. Probably can be at the camping site my midnight. I want to be able to get straight into hunting as soon as posslible Friday morning.

I’ll have it marked Well enough Chris stay safe come when you can.

Will do. I can’t wait to find a trail and start walking. Plan on going far and deep and spending a lot of time in the woods.

Leaving earlier than expected. Was asked to trade shifts with someone. Now working 7/5. Should be at the camp site by 9/10 pm.

Don't what it's like there, but it just turned on here. I saw several bucks this morning chasing tail and another nice buck with his nose to the ground around 2pm in the middle of a field.

Awesome, I’m not sure about the rut in north Alabama hoping it is similar to yours due to closeness. This big shift in weather will at least have them up and moving around. Going to cover some ground on foot but also have a few ridges picked out to sit and glass on.

Chris glad you’ll be able to get in earlier! Four years ago cell phone reception was weak in the area hoping that has improved some.

Oh and for identification I’ll be in a two tone blue old square body GMC.

Sunday we noticed cell service was in and out. I have read the the area rut starts around first of December. Matter of fact one of the campers i talked to Sunday said they were ready to bust loose any day.

Solid white Hyundai suv with pink auburn tag on the front.

I hope you boys knock down a monster or two. I wish I was there! Beautiful country to hunt! Keep us posted.

Black Nissan Frontier truck. Should be there before noon.

For those already there, how’s the crowd looking? And how’s cell service?

Good luck guys I hope all of you kill a big one!
