Topo Advice

Unread postby MarkTwain » Wed Nov 20, 2013 6:41 am

I can't figure out how to get a map I've marked up posted on here to see if anyone could contribute their thoughts on the different areas I'm interested in. If by any chance a resident expert on topo's happens to be in the house instead of woods this week, I'd appreciate any help. Or even email it to them, give out the coordinates so they could look at the bigger area if so inclined and give me any recommendations.

I'm wanting to revisit an area I used to hunt long ago with one of my sons this weekend, and try to hunt it with a purpose. Very unique federal property, extreme limits on access, and all kinds of terrain features. Although almost all open or field type areas are working on 70 years growth, so they usually represent the thickest stuff to hunt.

I'd be more than willing to share out the when/how to hunt the places to anyone interested in an out of state hunt, or anytime if they are a Missouri resident. Typically over Christmas is the only time to get any type of consistent access to these areas. Otherwise it's a wait until Thursday to see if you can hunt the weekend type place, and generally your lucky if 50% of weekends it will be open. This season this Saturday, if open will be only the 2nd day of firearm hunting, whereas just about all other areas will be working on thier 9th day. Definitely has 'hill country', and some of the areas I'd like to hunt are more bluffs than hills. Will be going in blind if open this weekend, and should still be towards the end of rut activity. Any help would be appreciated, I'd even be willing to just log on and get on the phone with somebody this week too.
