Hello, I'm a firefighter living in South Florida and for the past several years been deer hunting in central NC. That opportunity has passed and I was trying to find some hunting near East Tn. I have family near Dandridge and would love to combine a family visit with a deer hunt. I am not looking to hunt public land. I would love to meet up with someone familiar with local knowledge/access or an affordable fair chase hunt. Would love to get in a hunt this year, either between Thanksgiving and Christmas or after Christmas. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I would like to add that maybe we could trade outings. Either a fishing trip or airboat outing, if you were to visit south florida.

Yes, it is. However, it is no longer located at the Lake Worth Casino area. It is now in Manalapan. It was shut down for four months for the relocation. My wife and I have not visited the new location. Always a great breakfast there! When we do go out to breakfast, we usually go to the Lazy Loggerhead (at Carlin Park - Jupiter) or the Sailfish Marina on Palm Beach Shores.

Does anyone have an opinion regarding Rocky Top Outfitters in Pigeon Forge? They seem to be the only outfitter I can find in the Eastern Tennessee area.

Haha, as someone who grew up in Central NC, I still hunt there every chance I get (leaving tomorrow for the rest of the week). I will usually kill 6-8/year just hunting the holidays when I go back home. I live in east TN now (seymour) and from first hand experience,you need to stay in central NC. Comparitively speaking, its like night and day. 25 X's more deer in central NC vs East TN. What area you hunt in central NC?
