Scouting 162...now with a broken foot.

[CoryTDF]

Scouting is going well. I'm not seeing the animals I would have hoped but it's early and they are still low. It's really just been about getting to know the land better. I have met some great people and locked up some land. Some of these contour lines on the map just look like mud smears it's some steep, deep, and beautiful country. Putting out 3 cameras next week in some spots that look promising. I knew what I was getting into but seeing it from the roads and standing at the bottom are two different things. Love backcountry hunting!!!! I'm burning up some dinosaurs though and I'm sure Exon is happy, happy, happy with my business. I'll try and keep this thread updated.

Just Found Out My Foot Is Broken. Hurt It At Work On The 4Th AndAfter The Genus At The VA Told Me To Just Ice It And Take Motrin. Well After 9 Days Of Nagging Pain I Had It Checked And It's Fractured. Insert A String Of Curse Words Here. So Much For Hiking And Scouting And Exercising. So Pissed Right Now.

My Phone Does All CAPS for First Letters Of Words. I Don't Know why.

I fractured the big knuckle on my big toe a couple weeks back and it put a big kink in my getting in shape for hunting also. I feel for ya man. Hope it gets better by the time your hunt starts.

Is that the one that got a ride with Life flight? If it is, I was the guy that came to you guys and hiked in.
I hauled out 2 guys last year with big bull tags.
Nice thing is Dayton is close to you and you can still drive around.

Looks like a non displaced fracture so i should be good by hunting time. Still lame for getting into shape and hiking though.... at least it was not bad and needed to be in a cast. Just 10 days of light duty at work and a follow up in 2 weeks.

Yep, that was him. I was not over there when it happened, but he is getting around good now!

Hang in the Cory, I will be back up there this weekend, will let ya know if I see anything that may interest you.

Keep a bike in mind for getting in shape. It'll be a lot easier on your toe and man you can really burn those quads up on a bike. I've been doing it 3-4 times a week now for a month and I can't believe the difference its made. I'm doing 15-20 mile logging road runs now and loving it. Might not be as good as running the hills but its better than nothing...

I have had some great information come my way from some outstanding people from this site. Thanks for everyting guys you know who you are.
