as already mentioned, call Mike and he'll help you out I'm sure.

If nothing else I'll take an extra tent and you can leave it with Mike when you're done.

Looks like yer gonna be "tented" OK, Steve - but my offer stands, just in case, if you can find a way to get it.

Went and checked my planned area yesterday - lottsa tracks around. BUT then, I've got stuck with "Track Soup" before -   :D

HORSES ???? !!!!!!
Wheres da campground at ?
I'm sure Mike has made arrangements, if not... we can always camp at Pungo or Pettigrew state park.

What's wrong with camping with Horses - I was always doing it as a young teen - much to my Ma's dismay -    :p   At least you'll smell better to the Deer.

Some Horses don't care much for it though -

THAT IS FROM 2003-2004 season. They have printed but not posted the new one on-line.

Whew...i thought you meant this year!
I've been every year since '92 but i dont remember any horses.It may of been the year that the hurricanes ruined the opening week and i stayed home.
Heck, that aint no problem anyhow...if i can camp with bears, i can camp with horses.

Hey Stobber, how big is that tent your lettin me use? If its big enough, we can put somebody in there...

[ncboman]

Stob, he's referring to the link I put up. It's old but works and the map's still pretty much right.

The horses ARE in the campground right now and it looks like they are there to stay. Maybe he's moving the campground. I'll find out and post back. I'm sure he plans on us camping/staying there.

Maybe I can get Mike to post here and clarify.  

[STOBBER]

Larry,
it's a 6 man but will hold 4 comfortably.
I'm not sure how many i'll be accomidating just yet.At least 4 so far.
We'll find room somewhere , heck..i been known to sleep on the pic-nic table.
Alan,
just keep us posted or give Mike the website and maybe he can keep us informed.
The campground is part of his bread and butter, it'll be open i'm sure.

It is Mike's post, i checked his profile and it's Mike alright.Sounds like a great deal for him, also sounds like hunting will be good this year.
Keep in mind that Mikes lease and the refuge are two different enteties.Mike's lease is a guided hunt only.

Yes, Mike (Conman) operates with a perspective foreign in today's world, ie, trust in God.

In that, he has had the foresite to buy corn standing in the field, and leave it standing for the bears.

An archery bear hunter could do no better ...    

[STOBBER]

Well said Alan!
Mike is one of the good guy's for sure.

[STOBBER]

Hey Guys    I know they can have a thick hide , so do i need a heavy arrer?.
