I know Sam (Mannlicher) and his son Art are coming as well as Mark (HugaJackass) and his friend Randy,

So looking like 7 folks at this point.

I’m starting to pack this weekend, looks like a little rain on Friday and Saturday is possible.

The lad has had some serious issues pop up at one of his businesses. I just don’t feel up to doing the trip on my own. Sadly, we won’t be able to join y’all. A big disappointment for me, but reality take precedence over fun.
At least I can hunt his land, and that is only 8 miles from my house. 😬

Hey Matt

How about an update on the hunt.

I haven’t seen it if you already made one.

Andy, thnx for your response.

Sorry about the inclement Wx. It happens and we have no controls to adjust it.
I’ve been tending to my wife after knee surgery plus our Wx hasn’t been favorable either.
I’ve mostly missed hunting now for 3 weeks.

I do have 3 days immediately after Christmas. Maybe nothing will screw that up.

Jerry

Weather happens,What I really had was 4 full days with my youngest son making memories, and meeting Matt. Those are the things life is made of. Good luck on your three days after Christmas Jerry!

Sorry for the late reply. Between car trouble sick kids and bad weather I’ve had a rough start to my season. Got camp set up Thursday morning and hunted Thursday afternoon, some turkey and fresh coyote sign but no deer. Was a pleasure meeting Andy and his son Thursday night. It rained all Thursday night and steady into Friday with 2 more inches of rain predicted for the following 48hrs. We made the decision to pack up and close camp just not interested in those conditions. Hopefully next year will be better but thankful to meet more fire members especially from so far away,

Man that rough when that rain settles in. Hoping my next hunt between Christmas and New Year in AL will be in good weather. I have pulled the plug a few times there myself.

Hated to hear about all that rain, but it does ease the pain of missing the hunt with y’all. Will be in Miami with the missus the rest of December. No hunting for me down here. Should be able to kill another off my son’s property after thr first though.

So a lot of folks ask why we keep coming back to hunt the Black Warrior WMA each year for the Bama get together. Here are a handful of bucks taken there in the last 30 days. Just a sample from a public land hunters group on Facebook. The numbers of deer aren’t great but there are some damn nice ones back there!
