Pretty sure pics from my folks' house doesn't give away our spot. Been hitting the same areas for years and never see anybody.

Haven't seen anything but mature bulls dropping so far. It is early, but not overly surprising.

Thanks for the positive comments!

So why is timing so essential if there's no competition ?

I'm not certain there's no competition, just saying we don't usually run into people. Also, we're not out there every weekend, so between work and family obligations, the days when I can spend time in the woods with my kids/friends/family I like to take advantage of it.

Well, there's definitely a ton of competition. 5-10 trucks parked at all the same spots. Just a lot more land to cover than horn hunters are able, and we usually do a good job at going in further than most. Don't always do this well, most of the time it's just a great hike, but God's favor was on us this year....regardless of the competition :)
