    I was on a lease there for a few years. Nashoba Hunting Club. Big ole deer up there, pretty hard to hunt though


    The deer are wise and crafty in that part of the country. Been through many a season where I wondered why in the world I was still bowhunting.....then BOOM, a big old, nasty, swolle up beast materializes from the thick tangle, within bow range and I am reminded that the Kiamichi mountain don’t give up their trophy deer without a fight.

    If a man will put in the work to scout and hunt smart he can have success if things come together.

    I wrote this a few years ago and will repost.

    The Disease

    I've got a sickness and the only antidote can be found in the rugged, rock and brush choked valleys of the Kiamichis, delivered by a swollen, stinking, testosterone filled beast so wiley and elusive that his cedar and pine polished antlers have yet to be spied by human eyes. Like a fever this disease assaults me in the night as my thoughts and dreams turn to flashes of a brown coat and faint glimpses of white through the shadows. The alarm's unrelenting whine plucks the ghostly silhouette and misty calm from me as I fumble to a semi conscious state. My blurry gaze clears and once again I stand at the familiar corner of business need and domestic responsibility. The clock and calendar, defeated enemies of a recurring nine-month's war are resurrected once again. Until I am released from this wallless prison the beast of my dreams shall live a few weeks more.....completely oblivious to the impending threat from above that awaits.

    Opening weekend feels like a lifetime away.

      That’s a good read bro. Are y’all each buying new license/tags for each season (archery,gun,muzzleloader) as a non-resident or y’all just buying an archery tag and using it all year for all 3 seasons? I read somewhere I think you can do that. If that’s not correct please someone me.

        Thanks. Have a lifetime hunting and fishing in OK from the 90’s. Will have to defer to others on that.

          Since muzzleloader and rifle are so short we just bow hunt during for all the seasons off the archery license. No need to buy the other two. May buy a bear license this year, still undecided but had a bear last year I could have shot on opening day.

              My experience has been that some of the best hunting has been from muzzle loader to first week of November. Not super scientific but I’ve seen the most chasing activity then.

                one guy on our place has the lifetime but the rest of us just buy the archery and only hunt with it during all the seasons. I can't afford to buy the rifle, muzzleloader, and archery.
                I just wait till after deer season(or before), and use the AR to hog hunt. No need for a licence to hog hunt. You can even rifle hunt hog during deer season if you get a special tag or permit from the game warden.

                  The hogs have come and gone on our place. When the bears moved in it seemed like the hog sign dropped to near zero. This might have been coincidence. In 20+ years of hunting this place I’ve never seen a hog while on stand and have only ran across them while walking once. That said, I don’t hunt feeders on this place and have only begun using them in the last few years with my kids.

                  Between the hogs and bears I really don’t know which I’d take if I had to choose one. Don’t like either.

                    This is when i plan to focus my main hunting time, witch i think is the most chasing. It just gets crazy with people up there for the rifle season and kind of shuts the deer down seems like to me. But the late season hunting feed from Christmas until end of season should be good also after the bucks bachelor back up.

                      It is going to be a little different for me this year. We will be splitting time between Nashoba and our new place near Quinton this year. About to start running feeders up there to try to get my 10 year old his first deer.

Other part of lease is a little further south of the highway right where the river turns south and forms the western border to our place there.


                          This is the guy that was running the river just East of your place a few years back. Aged out at six and a half years.




                          Having a set close to the river could pay off. [emoji3]

                                If this keeps up I may have to sweat talk the wife into budgeting for a bear tag if MWW982 doesn’t get one!
