Well fellas I'm gonna be headed to Tennessee tomorrow. I'm huntin WMA ground and haven't had a chance to get down there this and listen. I killed a couple birds down there last ewe so I'd say birds will still be usin the same area. My 2 favorite spots on that WMA ground are both completely different. One is a big hardwood ridge that runs forever and saddles into other ridges and has benches all along the side...its beautiful back In there and full of birds but it gets a lot of pressure. Last year I killed one second morning there and it wasn't 5 minutes and I had a guy coming to see what I got. He was tryin to kill the same bird and come to find out 2 other guys were set up on that bird too. The other spot I like is less pressured, its a big open bottoms of crop fields separated by little Wood lots. Not sure exactly which route I'm gonna go but either way I'm gonna be at em bright n early Saturday mornin.
