Here is another photo of this pond from a past year when the water was higher. The reflection of this old oak tree in the water makes this spot beautiful and unique

He has 1200, the majority of which is somewhere between the swamp you see in the photos and high pine woods. He has a lot of mixed hardwood/pine woods which is great for deer and turkey, but not that great for quail. He has tried to get quail without much success.

I am all for increasing your arsenal to increase its versatility. (In plain English more guns)

Dad even tried pen raised, but wound up providing a buffet for the varmints. Coons, hawks and other critters seem to like hardwoods and Dad has plenty of those. Turkeys and deer love hardwoods though
