    Congrats man! That's awesome! I used to hunt them up right up on the VA border and it can definitely get crazy in that kinda topography. Kicking myself for not going out of state, this 2 week delay has been harder on me than I figured.

    For sure. That’s one reason I bought a tag out of state

    @Joe Well I'm glad you got one, I might have to slip down to the GA mountains before it's all said and done.
