I have a few small areas of land in south Knox co. and 1800 acres in Sevier co. (mountains)

your lucky to have them.I live here and drive several hours to hunt because i don't have any land to hunt here.kind of sucks to drive that far when we have good hunting here.

Well I tell you what, I'm not a greedy man and could maybe help you out with a local hunt here or there. I hunt mature bucks only here but don't care what you chose to shoot. It will have no affect on my deer hunting outcomes. This may be only a once or twice oppurtunity in knoxville area but Sevierville is different story. But it is diffulcult hunting terrain and that is putting it lightly. I mainly use that area for turkeys. Its full of turkeys. Deer become much more diffulcult to find. Normally I prefer to hunt low deer population areas as they can be the easiest to score on mature bucks (JMO). But the mountain area and its extreme terrain really put a whooping on you to just find those natural food sources that they use consistentily. There is so much browse that it becomes hard to find the area they are in. If your not where the deer are, well there always a chance you might see some turkeys! ....No shooting my knoxville does without "ok" first. Bucks are wide open shoot what you desire. But I can say that these are truly mature buck areas between Nov 3rd- 20th. Almost like clockwork. I will be in Illinois 13th-19th.
