Did the check station guys ask ya'll every time you called to check out if you saw anything? You could tell they were really hoping that we would have done better. They seemed like some real good guys out there.

I agree that the staff were all super nice. I'll try again next year for sure.
My lesson learned for next year is to set up a stand or two in heavy cover. I think that there are LOTS of animals there, but they're not used to seeing people. We glassed quite a bit and hunted the edges Friday/ Saturday/ Sunday. Never saw a single deer or hog in the open, but there was so much fresh sign. I think that as soon as the trucks moved in, everything went deep into the woods. Hard to say what the pattern might be, as it was so hot and dry.
I did pass on turkey Sunday evening. By the time I could get a clear shot, they were already beginning to roost. I had to sneak right by their roost on the way back to the truck.
