Official TN LBL Gun #1, Nov. 20-21, 2021

I am buckles. In a nutshell, I sat on a ridge saddle from daylight till noon with only one other car on our road. I took electric bike 700 yards down muddy road and then hiked 300 yards down trail. I had two fresh scrapes 60 yards away. I saw one hen, 50 buzzards, and had one blow from behind me.

I moved to a thicker area for the evening and hunted where 3 different types of habitat met. Nothing.

It was a great campground and cabin, The TN side also has dining options and stores near the entrance if needed.

From what I could see, not one single field on TN side is planted in any crops. The TN population is supposed to be better than KY side, but I saw no evidence of it. There is plenty of great habitat there, but soybeans go along way to helping antler growth

I had planned to hunt for 3 hours this morning before the rain got heavy. Long story short...I'm having some lower back issues. I thought for awhile that I would never be able to pack and leave. Hunting was out of question.

I will probably go back again to KY youth hunt, but I don't see myself going back alone on TN side.

This would be a great and nice way to have a tndeer hunt/gathering. The facilities are nice. I think it currently takes 2 preference points to draw.

Congratulations to all those successful! It is a beautiful place and we are blessed to have it.
 
My son and I hunted 15 all day sat and until about 11:00 yesterday. Different spots both days. I saw one small 9 pointer sat morning about 30 mins after getting in my stand. Was waiting for a bigger dude to come by. My son saw one doe Sat around 1:30. We saw nothing Sunday.
 
I had a great time hunting this weekend with my brother (Bamamonts). We saw a few deer but didn't get anything on the ground. Seemed a little slow this weekend in our area. But still a fun experience and I look forward to coming back. Happy for everyone that did get em one.
 
Area 14, 82lb spike shot behind the check in station was in stand less than 20 min. First to check one in that morning. Great hunt even better camping
