I was just wondering who else is hunting the metro 601 unit, and if they got any.  I am hunting in cottage grove at a farm I have hunted for the last three years.  So far I got a small doe, but I saw the big boy on opener.  I love the rifled barrel and scope on my Remington 870. :fudd:

I do not, but I am trying like heck to find a place to hunt in the 601.  I live in CG and would love to be able to hunt 10 minutes or less away.  let me know if you ever need any help out there!!   :happy1:  I saw two deer near two harbors this weekend and shot one doe tonight near Stacy at my Father-in-laws.

I hunt the 601 too, about 5 minutes from my house. Seen 3 bucks this weekend, 2 small that i passed on and 1 big 8 pointer that wouldn't give me a shot. My sister saw a buck and 2 does and my dad saw a small buck and a doe on Saturday. No shots taken yet.

I'm always looking for additional land to hunt on, i'd be willing to trade some prime private Pheasant hunting spots in the metro area for some private deer hunting land. Pm me if anyone here has something.

I am always interested in more hunting land to hunt around Cottage Gove or Afton also.  I want to find a more wooded area because when the corn is down it gets hard to get any.  If there is anybody on here that would allow deer hunter or two on, my number is 651-285-5209.

I'll be hunting in a MBRB hunt in Afton. Hopefully, it will produce something.  I got nothing my first 2 days of the hunt.  I have 2.5 more days coming up.
If ya don't know where ya are, go back to da beginnin.
