Re: #1 in Tennessee GN, i have not hunted my Grainger County properties in 2 years. Too many poachers, tresspassers, and some politics. Do not miss climbing those mountains.
This is a Knox county bird. Rolling farmland. Easy on the knees.

Re: #1 in Tennessee Way to go. I'll bet that last 150 yards raised your heartbeat a bit.
