Went to South Cherokee this morning to do some scouting. Had a buddy oversleep so had to go alone. Got there about 30 minutes before sunrise and found some flat land to start walking.
About 1/2 mile in I walked up on a snake hanging from a tree. I hate snakes by the way, scared the living crap out of me. Didn't see him till I was about 10 yards away.
Got around him started using my crow call, no gobble. Walked out about another 3/4 mile tried out the owl call, no gobbles.
Got back to the truck started heading farther in. Came around a corner and met a log truck that had to be going about 35 almost ran me off the road. Then about another 1/2 mile I ran into 2 more.
After that I was pretty much too nervous to keep going. Those trucks were coming down the mountain way too fast and some didn't bother to even slow down.
Did get to see a couple deer though!
