Thanks for the comments folks! I really appreciate it.
CD1, I agree and would love to hunt every weekend. However, since that isn't an option, I am trying to optimize when is best to go. The rut in SC where I'll be going is around Mid November, so best I can do is hit the pre-rut.
Keith, I agree with what you are saying. Since I will be with a "guide"(someone to take me into the area), I'm hopeful they will have some options like those mentioned available.
Kingcreek, that lunancy comment somewhat resembles me!
