Location: Preston county West Virginia 

250 acres private farm 

lodgings used to be my uncle’s in laws house a mile down the rod from the property. Small country house, wood burning furnace, shower was in the basement (would hate that as a kid bc it was so cold!). Now we stay with my cousin in Morgantown. Used to be my uncle, dad, cousin and myself. Now it’s just me and my uncle. 

The farm is my favorite place on earth, I can’t even count how many amazing memories we’ve made there. I’ve pretty much hunted every opening day of rifle there since I was 7 (I’m 35 now). It’s meant so much to me and father I spread come of his ashes on the hillside we used to hunt when I was a kid after he died a few years ago.

I call it "zone 5" - NJ.   2,900 sq feet. Built 2002.  2.5 baths, electricity and plumbing. Having grown up with deer camps at the base of Kittatinny mountains for that deer gang experience, I would much rather go solo with the bow.  To me it's about being one with the deer and nature, and not a gang sport.  I can hang with my buddies by my firepit or theirs for drinks and cigars and ball-busting any time I want.  But that's just me - a loner. Not for everyone. 

You can’t stay off your phone long enough for a solo hunt lol.

‘you can’t BS us that you don’t really enjoy the camaraderie , possibly you just were not in the “right “ club .

If anything your one of the most selfless,  sharing person I know .

def not a loner , as you go out of your way to show others a great time in the outdoors

The “Stabbin Cabin” the main house is an old cow barn from the 1800’s my dad’s friend raised and converted to a cabin.

Gilboa, NY really tough hunting with the APRs and low deer densities, wife can’t understand why I drive 180 miles past all our deer to look at trees in the mountains!

Best week of the year with me, my brother, 2 friends and his dad who is not a hunter just runs the camp, best guy ever. 


We are lucky to kill 1 or 2 bucks a year up there... best memories are all the ball busting, “improvements” in the off season trips and the eating and drinking like kings every time up!

Elk County PA

Hunt huge public land which borders our property.

Cards(mostly cinch, nobody probably knows what that is and texas hold em), Beer,  and stories.

Usually between 6-8 hunters... this year was an exception with only 3. FU covid.

1 main room with wood burner and a small bunk room in the back.

no running water, no cell service.

Local radio plays the "2nd week of deer camp"from posting above through out the season.

Was built by my late grandpa I believe 5oish years ago.

Already looking forward to this season.  I need to find some pictures.

That’s where my ol man cut his teeth hunting. His Uncle (through marriage into the family) had a cabin on a 100 year lease out there. He used to have some great stories and enjoyed seeing elk come through the woods. I never got to hunt out that way or even met his Uncle before he passed. Now my old man is gone and I don’t even know that part of the family. As I recall his cousins still hunt up there. Was some pretty tough hunting from what I’ve heard.

Man I love the Adirondacks. It’s my favorite place to go. I’m up there most months once spring hits and then all the way through hunting season. I run out of Indian Lake. That’s an awesome place you have there.
