Looking for some solid info as to what my expectations should be for hunting pressure near here on Dec 3-6? Planning to head back down from N Mich as my archery hunt a couple weeks ago leaves me with my tag unused. My spots are pretty remote and I walk past a couple 2x4 ladder stands at one of them (both 100 yards from the parking) but I'm planning all day sits as long as I don't get bumped out by other guys. Also plan to be the first guy in and last guy out... Was going to give up the Thursday morning hunt and just do some driving in the morning to vehicle check my parking spots and get a feel for the pressure as well. If I happen upon one of my spots with no one there- I'll probably dive in and hunt.

Of course everything I read says "worst experience ever" "guy behind every tree" "shots flying randomly every where", etc. etc. Like 90% of the crap posted on the net- worst experience and reviews are what people want to post just for the sympathy. What I 'm looking for is real world experience and replies from serious guys that have been there and done that.

If guys want to PM me I'd be a bit more open to dialing in specific locations if they know the area well. If someone happens to have access to private with 130-150" they want removed I'd be more than happy to oblige my civic duty to our saddle brotherhood and try to rid your piece of said buck!!

Thanks guys and looking forward to some solid info- good or bad. Dave
