    Milkweed in those fields is brutal. 7 and 8 ft tall, Overgrown in a lot of areas until you get in the timber. Not much sign out there yet from what I found. Another 3 weeks and it should start getting ripe

      Is that milkweed or ragweed? I've been searching for some milkweed to collect the pods to use as wind checkers.

          That stuff is killing me right now. Hope the rain knocks some of it down soon.

            I started through the middle of it trying to get to a giant cottonwood tree 100 yards away. I made it 20 yards and turned around. [emoji23]

              It sounds like you couldn’t hack it... har dee har har. But on a serious note, I hate that crap. At Aquila I tried cutting through it with a machete and about an hour later I think I had made it 50-60 yards and was close to having a heat stroke. I know deer won’t bed directly in it but hogs dang sure will. Stuffs terrible but here’s something crazy about it!

                I spent 5 hours out there thursday. Parked in the lot off bobcat and walked up the road to the creek. Then cut over under 377. Access really does suck. I walked for at least 2 hours in and didn't even come close to reaching the western part. Found a little sigh and maybe a spot or two. I will have to go again this week.

                Can anyone one tell me what the trail with the orange paint markers is called?

                  [emoji23][emoji23] I was trying to get to the cottonwood Big Anthony sent me in there to check out. I couldn't hack it. You are correct. I do believe this is gonna be a Kayak entrance year at the vine. I just need you to guide me Shane. [emoji16]

                            Ya the later start kinda sucks and I'm sure the early youth hunts aren't just overwhelmed with hunter numbers. We would all probably love that extra 3 1/2 extra weeks to get it done out there. Bow hunting is hard enough Without time restrictions. Wanna kill big deer then pay your seat dues. I'll have 21 days of straight hunting for me in November and it will take all of that time more than likely. Unless Kirby helps me [emoji16] or Anthony. I can't rely on the Doeminator or the Dappers.

                              Shoot, you don't need help! You have it figured out. You'll be showing us all how it's done.

                                All I know how to show anyone is how to be ruthlessly persistent and sit for days. Patience is all I know. The rest is just luck in my opinion [emoji6]
