Has anyone ever or known of anyone that has deer hunted the foothills wma in blount co? I know the terrain is tough and it is walk in only with limited access but there is a ton of acerage and with it being so close to cades cove, has to hold some studs.

Not many deer in those big woods.

I don't know anything about that area, but if there are few deer
there and it is remote and rugged, there is probably a "monster"
buck in there somewhere.

Who would I need to talk to within the twra? Im sure there is a biologist out there that could answer the question. I remember a few years ago in the TN Sportsman Magazine where they did an article talikng about it being a good late season hot spot. Im assuming that is because of the bear population but I'm not giving up on it regardless!
