Title: Hancock
Post by: beave on February 14, 2010, 09:25:15 AM: Has anybody had any luck up there so far for sheds. I put in a couple hrs last weekend and two hrs yesterday with no luck. I did see a couple of bucks though that already dropped. I did Run into A cougar yesterday... That was cool, It was my first time seeing one in the Wild. It took off before i could get a pic.

I have a cat tag for that area so thanks for letting me ease drop, not that the cat will still be there but it's a place to start.

Hancock has land all over the state, some you have to pay to use, some is free to use, and some you cant access at all. Actually, they have timber land all over the country.
