backpack camping and hunting

[pseshooter300]

I posted something like this a month or so ago on another forum I'm active on got some cool stories but no real interest from anyone. Anyone on here ever backpacked in a couple miles setup a camp and camped from that spot and then turkey hunted some where in the general area. I would love to find someone to backpack in with each a with a 1 man bivy there bag and food for a couple days. I would love to do this in the Cherokee national forest. But most people don't want to or something I guess. I talk to a guy at work and was telling him about packing in on a hunt like this and he was like are you kidding me. So if any east Tn guys are wanting to do this let me know.

I've done it in my younger days and wouldn't be opposed to doing it now.    It can be quite an experience.   I've done it on the Peace River in Florida, Apalachicola, and also in the Everglades.  I wouldn't recommend doing it in the Glades to anyone with a fear of dieing and never being heard from again.   Cherokee sounds like it would have potential.  Maybe someone closer might take you up on it.  Good luck.

I thought if you had another person it would be some what safer if one got hurt. Plus to share the hunt with

Western state hunting its a normal thing but for some reason people just don't want to venture out backpack hunt around here

Yep, that was in Ohio and required surgery to put everything back to where it was supposed to be.

This thread has me wanting to do a pack in hunt.  Ain't many people will go with me though.

I have always wanted to backpack in somewhere and turkey hunt. If I didn't already have my spring plans finalized, I'd definitely be game.

I hammock camp and if TN wasn't so far away and I didn't already have my spring hunts planned I would take you up in a heart beat. I love backpacking and camping and if you wrap all that up in a turkey hunt it would almost be a little like heaven

I've always wanted to do it. A lot of the places I hunt are several miles back, so it would eliminate a walk in for at least one day. I hunt North Cherokee also. Maybe we can get together sometime before the season and talk strategy.
