getting ready for deer season
Pat B:
I got back last evening and am dead tired. Will post the few pics I took later. We got all the mowing, plowing and planting done. Absolutely no soil moisture too a foot down. On the way home, came through a front that gave us 1.23" of rain at home. I hope it made it to the club in GA. Pat
Justin Snyder:
Oh come on, make up your mind. Dry as a popcorn F#$% or wet heat, you cant have both. ;D We haven't got that much rain here, maybe 1/2". But we had gone 4 months without anything. Combine that with all the fires, and we have major flooding. We had a 20" wall of water go through Hamlin Valley last night. I guess there wont be many roads left come hunting season. Oh yea, and we are expecting near 100* temperatures today with all that water, so yes we know all about wet heat. ;) Justin
Well, we got another .66" of rain in the last 20 minutes.

Our preseason is starting to shape up.We had a tropical wave move across the state last week and I got 5" of rain in one afternoon.Then 3" Sat. and an inch on Sunday.If we could get a hurricane to dump about 10 or 15 inches before the season opens it would be great hunting in the swamps.Everything concetrates on the dry oak hammocks and the city hunters that don't like wading water leave the good places for the rest of us.
Pat B:
I think our club got a good rain yesterday after we left. There were persimmons, grapes and I found a few white oak acorns that a squirrel had cut. The soy beans and Iron clay peas should be up for the opener. We only plant them near stands for opening of the season(legal bait ;D). I'll post the few pics I took a bit later this evening. Pat
