We had a thread on chuck swann going here a month or 2 ago but from what the locals were saying about the logging companies in there is that it will look a lot different than any of the aerial maps will show due to the extensive logging going on

i went in there beginning of august to look around and they were a lot of loggers in there.

I would also consider calling the area manager and speaking with him, especially given the fact that they are making changes to the forest with the logging. I have spoke with him multiple times, he's a nice guy. He even chased me down and pulled me over once because I forgot to check out after a turkey hunt.

Here is his number: DUSTIN MCCUBBINS (865) 278-3248

there is a campground on site but TWRA just posted on facebook that the campground is out of water d/t the drought and you would need to bring your own water.

my buddy shot high on a nice 8.when i left the last night 3 bucks killed total.biggest was a 6 weighing 90 pounds.I assume thats field dressed but not sure.It was crazy dry everywhere.Theres a bunch of deer in there.But it seemed like every oak tree in the place was dropping.so it was a bad combo of hot and dry with mast everywhere.
