Thanks Woody! My dad and I still plan to give it a whirl 10-15&16. Hopefully we can get some incite here from the earlier hunts. We won't shoot anything under 140inch but will take a last min doe if it works out that way. Just hope luck will be with us

The regulations or Newport rules I thought said hunting was allowed 30 mins prior to sunrise and 30 mins after sunset... If we have to be off the property by 5:30 that's going to make it very tuff hunting.

What if you your on the blood trail at 5:30? I'd assume if you're not back for checkout some MP's will be looking for you.

We drove 90 mins one way last night to get a glimpse of the Newport property. The farmers were in there picking beans. Looks like a ton of corn still standing in there. Hard to scout the gigantic place from outside the gate. Looks pretty awesome though. The trees are so bright right now!! We didn't see any deer till around 7:30, then saw a few does. If anybody is hunting Sunday or this upcoming week please let us know what to expect as far as how they assign areas and the 5:30 out time. The 5:30 time out has really got me bummed. Goodluck!

good hunt, lots of deer there for sure. Be nice to be there on a bow hunt when all the corn is out. Be carefull if you get in on one of the first gun hunts, looks to be a snafu, imo bet it don't last long way it setup.
