This is a picture of my sweet spot a small acreage that I have hunted for more than 20 years. I have taken many deer from these woods. Back there behind the doe you might notice the woods get quite thick. That is the property line. Beyond there lies a big stretch of woods that I have wanted to hunt for all of these years. I think I first asked to hunt there nearly 30 years ago and was politely turned down. Since that time the land was sold and others had access to the deer and turkeys. I met the owner last year but knowing he had his circle of friends I did not bother him about hunting figuring there was no point. Amazingly he called me on the phone recently to see if I would like to hunt that land. I would share the rights with a friend of his and the 2 of us would have access to 150 acres bordering my sweet spot. I am still in shock! This makes the second time in less than a year that someone has offered me land to hunt without my asking. I have decided that maybe it is my age.... I will soon be 67. Maybe people are thinking I wont be able to shoot anything anyway or maybe they are feeling a bit sorry for this old hunter. Whatever the reason I will gladly accept the generosity.
