Alabama Bound!

[lhbackcountry]

My Mom's family is from Evergreen. I grew up eating Pa-Pa sausage (Conecuh) and Alaga syrup. Wish it was cheaper to ship to AZ. At least we can get Milo's tea at the local Walmart

id give you a cooler of conecuh for an opportunity at muley in az *eyeroll*

I must say thank you for starting this thread. I live in western NC and AL is only about 2hrs away. That being said, I have never really thought about hunting AL until now... Definitely will have to look into now.

Long season, lots of deer, long rut, liberal bag limits.

I’m got here yesterday an hour before the snow. Holy cow, this town has been shutdown for 24 hrs.
Cold this morning 11 degrees chill factor about 3 degrees. That is cold for Alabama. Last snow I remember here was 2017.

Had 8" of snow yesterday.
Low of 15 - High of 31 today.
20 miles from the Beach.
Epic stuff.

Buddies just got back from Alabama. They got a couple nice bucks, some does and pigs everyone had a great time

Had bucks acting rutty the week before Christmas on the north end of our property, now they're acting rutty on the south end and have been for about a week or so.

Very weird rut and hard to pattern but I love it!

Any rut reports from the south east corner of Alabama? I’ll be there next week.

I’m in South Central
Lowndes County Northwest of Greenville. Not chasing yet.
I expect any day for things to ramp up. Hard to call.

Shot this one in Lowndes County last evening. Chasing a doe across a ridge in a drain I was hunting in. Long shot in the woods for me at 180 yards. He stopped just long enough in a clear area to give me a good shot. He took about ten steps then nosed in. Not the biggest in the woods but glad to get him as I thought I would only be a spectator last night. Oh boy did he stink. Worst I ever smelled. I guess the rut is on here on this lease.

That’s a great Alabama deer. Congrats my man. Fun when they are chasing.

Been busy since I got back from our Alabama trip to get on here and report back. We had a great time hunting a new area. Buddies place is a big timber operation. Tons of food plots scattered all through it. The focus was on the boys (12 of them and all seniors in HS). 4 of them had never shot a deer and all 4 got their first. Great experience for them. My son passed on some decent 8’s that weren’t mature enough for him. Proud he didn’t just shoot one to shoot one.
