What a weekend! We made it back on Sunday from our trip to Virginia capturing a cousin’s beautiful wedding to learn that our QDMA REACH Banquet had gone off great. By all reports it was an amazing time and everyone that I have talked to all agreed that it was a total success. We gave away tons of great stuff and raised a great deal of money for the Quality Deer Management Association as well as recruited lots of new members. So, while I hated missing it, I could not be more pleased.

I want to send out a HUGE Thank you and job well done to all of the committee members that assisted with the planning, set up and running of the night. I also want to thank all of the other volunteers that showed up to help out as well as all of the supporters and donors that contributed to our cause. Without all of these wonderful individuals, our Salkehatchie Branch could not have put on such a successful event. So again, thank you to everyone!

As for our trip, only we could accidentally get a hotel room right by a national park that held a huge un-hunted deer population. I just wish we could have spent a few more days exploring it because, while the buck to doe ration was obviously off, it was loaded with monsters. We even saw one buck that easily went over 140 inches and possibly topped 150! I would tell you the name of the park except I believe that they may open it up to bow hunts soon and a hunter (ME) swore me to secrecy

And in case you have been living on the moon, opening day is just 2 days away now! I will have complete coverage of some fantastic hunts here on LowcountryHuning, so you definitely want to check in as I get back to full-time writing.
