I hope this is not the case, but it very well could be as I have heard numerous stories from PI about BIG 135-150" 8s that were within bow range but off limits.
My advice to ALL would be to take a digital camera on the scout day and on the hunt days to snap pics of the massive rubs you will most likely see and also take a camcorder to video some of the big bucks that are off limits or out of range.
Good luck to all.

Good luck to all that is joining us!! I hate to be the one to tell you, deadeye, but the Ensley Unit is nothing like the Island Unit itself. Ensley is mostly all timber, minimal access with several pockets of water and much more difficult to hunt than the Island Unit. And you'll only see a small percentage of the deer you would see on the Island. I had a buddy that hunted the Ensley Unit last year and he saw 1 small deer in 3 days of hunting. But the potential is there. Good luck.
