Depends on whether you're in the bottoms or in MTU. In the bottoms, I find water oak and overcup to be best. In the ridges, there may be some hickory cutting going on, but Beech is always a good bet early. There may even be some water/laurel/willow oak along the creeks.

I've got several hickory trees spaced around the area I plan on hunting Saturday. Hopefully they will still have a few hickory nuts left in them. If you hit them right, you can shoot several squirrels out of one tree and they won't stop eating.
