Now that I reread it, it is not as grossly inaccurate as I originally thought. Although it can be interpreted as inaccurate however, the wording is just too broad sweeping to be correct

I also wonder why the use of the word mountain has come into question. As if the Cumberlands aren't worthy of being in the mountain category.

Sorry BSK but you are incorrect. The mountains along the TN and KY border are exactly the same. Both have been and are currently being mined extensively for coal, have the same soil types, same timber types, basically exact carbon copies.

You are right in part, but Eastern KY coalfields and TN coal fields are not truly one in the same. Sure they are geologically similar, but you have the TN region and the KY region.

I strongly disagree.

But most of those "monsters" dont come from land that is actually affected by the current regulations. Most come from large tracts with restrictions. Places around here that arent kept away from poachers and antler hungry hunters are just like the rest of the state. We are just blessed to have several large protected tracts and very hard to access public land.

I got fiend that has killed three dandy bucks from public land in fentrees co..two 10's and a 13 pointer, they were all older deer...I am not sure of where it is exactly but he said it was pretty remote. Some where next to a private farm that raised pheasents and sold tower shoots I think...He could only access it with a pretty good four wheeler ride..then according to him the horse riders had it shut down to all motorised vehicle traffic after a tornado or something like that went thru..

Ya,...ya thats it!... If you REALLY beleive that I suggest you READ IT AGAIN... maybe a little sloooower this time...



...you ain't originaly from these parts are you?(e tn) .....Hardly anybody that was actually born and raised in the appalacian (unaka) mnt chain considers the cumberlands to be "mountains"... ..
....you westerners can call em anything you want to... but were stickin to it!!

Do you need a bigger shovel?.....

I hear the peabody coal companys got one they will rent you!!!

I guess it all depends on what your definition of a mountain is. I certainly am not qualified to make that distinction, are you?

You just like picking, don't have anything of substance to add, just some sort of pitiful childish grudge to push forth. Okay, if that is what fulfills your life.

Don't think I could have been any clearer in my follow up, but I guess that is difficult to comprehend for some.

Well thats the FIRST thing I've ever seen that your not qualified at!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
