Good luck to you H.H. I'll be camping down there next weekend...I'll try and do some scouting for you! A big group of us goes down every year and stay in the cabins....that's as close to "roughing" it as my wife will get! ;D

the cabins are one of the best places to hunt. sit on the hill and shoot them as they come around the lake. ive been drawn to hunt there the last 5 years and am due to not get drawed. h.h.

Were you down by the "maple" cabins? I've seen deer from my porch swing before at dawn with my first cup of coffee, and thought...."Only to have my bow in hand!" ;D

i don't hunt there but several guys do and they have good luck. I'm not sure what cabins are what as they have several. ive seen some nice bucks come out of there in the last 5 years. last year at the check in station there was a giant 8 pter that been shot 5 times, broke one front and one back leg. the check-in guy said two young hunters had him come between them and they unloaded on him. he was shot up pretty bad but i can imagine they were not going to quit shooting until he stopped moving. lol h.h.

That's funny and scary all at the same time! LOL I've hike just about all the trails there, and have gotten off the trails a few times and found some GREAT sign. I almost put in for the draw down there this year, but P.Creek is a bit closer. Have you personally had good luck down there in your drawn hunts?

yes, ive killed three deer two out of the five years and the other years i took 2. ive got a secret spot that only 2 others know of and it produces for me. really i dont think there is one spot that much better than the other. most of the guys wanting to hunt big bucks go behind the prison because its so thick. way to much rugged country for me to hunt back there. h.h.

jajwrigh, Sorry to hear you didn't get picked. I got two notification cards back, one NOT SELECTED and one SELECTED. It did not say which date. I have went for three years now, and shot a deer the last two. Wonderful hunt. I was driving a blue Jeep Cherokee, if anybody remembers me Was that setup confusing as heck last year or what? I drive up to the guard shack and it's deserted! The officials were all stationed up in the park!
