 Welcome
to the Whitetail Adventures Hunting Club website! Here, you will
find information on my lease and whitetail deer management
practices.
 My
lands are very diverse and range from large white oak bottoms to rolling
hills with mature pines. This in turn increases the carrying
capacities of the land and the quality of the deer. Alabama
has one of the most liberal hunting seasons in the country. There are
over 100 days you can
hunt whitetails here in Alabama.
 In addition, deer aren't the only creatures roaming around
in these woods. We have a very healthy population of turkeys. Each year,
we add in seed such as chufa to our food plot seed that turkeys love. It has been under a strict management plan for
seven years
now, and we have seen a great increase in the population and quality of
the deer thanks to our practices. I plant several food plots on my lands with choices that have high nutritional
value. Lablab, tropical corn, soybeans, and peas are
planted each year in the spring. This helps attract new deer to our
land, as well as feeds and
maintains the current population. In the fall,
I will tear up some of the spring plots and make room for fall/winter plots.
The tropical corn typically becomes mature and begins being utilized by
the deer around the first week of bow season, so if there is a good corn
crop, I leave it standing.
You can find more information about this and other topics on our
management page. My lands have everything
you would ever want want to hunt--hardwood bottoms, both mature and young planted pines,
thickets, and beautiful creek bottoms.
 The Summit Plot Mule has helped tremendously in getting in
tight little spots where a tractor can't go. To be honest, we haven't
even used a tractor once to do anything to our fields since I purchased
it. The
Plot Mule has taken over those duties!

8-9-08 Here are some pictures from some of the food
plots taken today. The deer were moving pretty good this
afternoon with half of a moon straight up in the sky.
The deer have eaten all the seed of the sorghum plants from the
Maximize seed mix. They
destroyed the peas and soybeans in this plot a long time ago.
Here is another plot planted with Evolved Harvest Maximum. The
deer are about to begin tearing into it as the sorghum seeds are
changing to a reddish color, and they have eaten the leaves off
most of the sunflowers.
Here are two does I drove up on that were eating in another
Evolved Harvest Maximum plot.

8-5-08 Here are some of the food plots that were
planted in the spring with Evolved Harvest's "Maximize." This
seed is a mixture of forage soybeans, sorghum, and sunflowers.
As the grain on the sorghum begins to mature as it has in the
first picture below, the deer begin eating the seed tops.

Attention
There have been numerous
instances of thefts, trespassing, and acts of vandalism on my
lands going on for the last 9 months. Any person with
information regarding these incidents should contact the Henry
County Sheriff's Department and ask for Investigator Culbreth.
He can be reached at 334-585-3131. Here is a list of items
stolen from my lease.
3 Moultrie GameSpy Trail Cameras
3 G-30 pop-up Ground Blinds
3 Two-Man ladder stands
1 15" shooting house
1 Summit Viper SS Climbing Stand
And several other items.
There has already been an arrest of one person on numerous
charges in connection with the crimes. He was a member
of a neighboring dog hunting club, and I expect that there will be several
other arrests as well. Again, contact me or Mr. Culbreth if you
have information on these items.
Here are some pictures of the stolen items.

Other than that mess I have to put up with, my corn crop is
doing very well with the corn well over 5' tall after planting less
than a month ago! Here is a picture of the field.
