Hunting camp is 35 min from house to stand. No fishing camp, but there are about 10 of the best fresh water empoundments in the state of La anywhere from 5-45 mins from my house. 1.5 hour to Toledo, 2.5 hours to Big Lake for specks.

Arkansas Duck/Deer Season - almost 4 hours back to Stuttgart.

Fishing - 15 minutes over to Table Rock Lake.

Hunting 2 minute walk from the house. I've killed 3 10 points with my bow on that stand in the last 3 years(2 P@Y), and a couple nice 8's. Fishing is a 17 minute drive.

You take a float plane because there is no road?

Yeah, you can land a super cub on the beach at low tide with tundra tires, or a cessna on floats. No roads into or out of Juneau. Boat or plane are standard modes of transport to get anywhere.

Yeah, you don't have to go far to find real wilderness.

Shoot alot of ducks and turkeys around Tulsa but I have to drive 4 hours west to KS to our place to deer hunt. Have plenty of places to deer hunt around here but they don't do it for me like the big boys in KS

Deer turkey about 45 min. Ducks/Geese/fish 2.5 hours to Venice.

That's where my "camps" are but I hunt all over the country when I can, Illinois, Arkansas, MS, TX wherever. I take lots of guys out in Venice and in return get lots of invites to other places.
