I went to LBL Thursday, July 22nd for a pre season reconnaissance for the upcoming deer season. I was really surprised. All the crops (that were not supposed to be planted) are really looking good. Looks like it is about 50/50 corn and beans.
I got there about noon and began seeing deer almost immediately. Ended up with a count of 43 total from noon to 6pm. It was really HOT, 96 degrees with a slight breeze but it did't seem to bother the deer. I saw five antlered bucks and the remainder was antlerless and fawns. There could have been a few more bucks in the mix that I only got a glimpse of and could not confirm buck or doe.
Looks like it should be a banner year there!

Very promising report. I had heard that crops were being planted I just didn't know to what extent. I'm glad to hear that beans are 50/50. Weather has kept me away for the time being. As long as we get some more rain between now and opening day I think we will have a great season at LBL.
Thanks again for that report.

there are a lot of people who hunt that area already.I would say other than wilcat hollow it gets hunted more than most.I guess you were trying to make a joke from how I read your post but that area does get hunted hard.

As a newbie to LBL 4 years ago wildcat hollow is where my interest was first drawn. Since I have found many other areas to hunt with less pressure and less people. Seen several nice bucks last year just out of bow range and one 5yds away that I just couldn't get a shot on. Glad to hear that the crops were planted eventhough I don't hunt the fields.

I have a question about LBL. I am new to putting in on draw hunts and i put in for LBL, but from the posts i see here it seems that you can hunt there anytime. Is that right or are you just scouting in case you get drawn?
