You are right,as far as I know,Ive seen where the glaciers bottomed out,I guess it makes that much difference,I was just shocked at the difference between even Wilson and Shelby,and Im talking the difference in rock and crops,I would not advise ETN guys to go to SShelby,you might lose your mind, counties,much less Shelby and ..........Butler,Christian,etc

I too have seen soil maps that had sections of west TN shaded in with the great Mid-west soils. I hunt right in that area of west TN that was in the small area of shaded pink (I think that was the color). And there is no doubt a great herd of deer in that area. To me the soil doesn't look so great but the bucks do. I believe that the gene pool within this area is just as much of a factor. Would not be surprised at all if new state record came from within 5 miles of my hunting land. There are a few or more deer that would qualify for B&C just on the acres I hunt. I know I have seen several with my on eyes as well as occasional trail camera pic.

I guess the investigator side came out in me... [img]  [/img] Not the same map I have seen. The soil map here is hard to make out exactly where west TN is at. Needs over lay to pin point these smaller areas.

Chaneylake Hunt Club is off of Hwy 70 between Brownsville and Stanton.
The Main Office of the HNWR is off of Hwy 76 near I-40 exit 56, just a few miles outside of Brownsville......
If you took 385 to 64 and then went east, you might have passed through Somerville. If so, then if you had taken hwy 76 North, you would have driven right through the heart of HNWR and seen the signs for O'Neal lake and the Refuge office.
While in Arlington, if you had taken Hwy 70 North or maybe east, you would have driven through several small towns, but after you got out of Stanton, you would soon pass by the entrance to CLHC....
I have never been to any other parts of the HNWR system. I think there is only two, but I may be mistaken. We live near the MAIN division...11,566 acres.
i did not know that there were any refuge areas near hwy. 64, but I certainly do not know everything......contrary to popular belief......lol
Did you actually see a HNWR sign or just a sign for the HATCHIE RIVER,,,,?? curious.....
thanks
