    She actually shot her first deer the season before last. The rifle scope bloodied the bridge of her nose and she didn't even know it she was so excited. Last year we had a bad season for some reason. All our deer came out at night. Only took two and she took zero. I hinted around to her already about her trying to shoot a bow but she hasn't really shown any interest yet.

    May add it to our wedding vows next month... lol ;)

    lived and hunted there back in the 70's... some great hunting and even better seasons/limits... back in the day, I preferred the hellhole and waterhorn units in Francis Marion... if the have kept the shotgunners and their dogs out they should still be pretty good for bow hunting... liked waterhorn better.. got at least 2 outa there every year... only got one outa the hellhole bout every other year..

    I have hunted Hellhole before and have heard good things about Waterhorn... DNR has cut back a lot on dog days, and deer limits...

    I've been bowhunting for 30+ years. I've done most of my hunting in SC and WV. My knees can't handle the mountains of WV anymore. I've also hunted IL three seasons and hunted my first hunt in NC a week ago.

    Been visiting North Myrtle Beach, SC my whole life, parents have a condo there. I have always wanted to do some hunting but I feel like I would have to travel a little ways inland to find anywhere to hunt. Love the fishing and the weather down there!

    Just moved to SC 1.5 years ago. Have bowhunted in Utah, Tennessee, and Texas and have to say that 2015 in SC was pretty difficult compared to those other states. Looking forward to a more productive (dryer) fall in 2016.
