Anyone hunting the muzzleloader hunt this upcoming weekend
From 2018 until last year I didn't see anyone Until I got back to my truck. Usually just me a one other guy there. I've always saw deer just small bucks and does my first 2 years hunting it. The last 2 years they've been on fire and I've walked out with 3 deer. Should have been 4 been I let him walk last year. Let's hope for 2 more this year . One spot I hunt has 0 sign but they're there it's usually scraped up good. If I could hunt it all year long I probably would. I just love the hills til it comes to the drag.Only 2 WMA's that I have hunted that I have not ever killed a deer, Catoosa and Laurel Hill. I went to Catoosa a lot when I was younger but never really saw any deer at all and did see several other hunters there. I was going back this year, but put in for wrong weekend and got drawn same hunt as opening weekend of gun season in KY.
I never have trouble getting away from people at Laurel Hill, I have trouble seeing deer there. I almost have never seen a dead deer on a vehicle there. I like hunting there though. Hunted there last year, never saw another hunter or a deer in the woods. I have a later hunt there this year and most likely will go.
Help me out I have found sign there at times, promising sign. I have almost never seen a deer there.From 2018 until last year I didn't see anyone Until I got back to my truck.

30-06 I was gonna mention your two deer but I don't do that on social media. Lol glad you commented. I must hunt a total different area than you cause the road I mostly hunt looks like I65 with all the reflective tacks and walmart parking lot with all the trucks.From 2018 until last year I didn't see anyone Until I got back to my truck.

I see I made top 5. They gave me a different measurement tho. Taxidermist remeasured and came out to 130". I shot a 7 point this morning.I hunted LH two hours on Friday. As usual, no luck! But, I did snap these photos before I left.
