72 shots in 10 days!!!

It's our usual whirlwind of a re-opener here at the lodge. Doe season is in, and the rut has not yet broken up the bucks and put them in bad moods, so our shot opportunities are in high gear. Last night, for instance, we had 9 hunters out, and 9 animals were harvested. (7 deer and 2 hogs). Here are a sample:

Mr. Kostukovich (PA) poses here with his first ever buck! A longtime hunter in PA, Mr. K always has harvested doe on his lease up in PA, but was happy to get a South Carolina buck.

Rick Miller (PA) got a nice 8-point the same night, right before jetting back to his 'real life' - SIGHHH.

2006 Turkey Harvest

    This year's turkey season was our best one to date! We had fabulous spring weather and our hunters enjoyed an unparalled level of success. We also had more than a few near misses, which made for VERY entertaining stories around the campfire. Our 'turkey fever' is worse than ever!
