New from East TN

[buzz mc]

Well, it's my turn. I've been lurking on this forum for years. I've gained lots of knowledge and it's about time I started to contribute some of my own. My name is Buzz McManus and I live in Maryville TN. I was born in Central Ohio. Graduated from Ohio University (Bobcats, not Buckeyes) in 1993. Moved to TN over a decade ago. Met a Southern Belle and got married. I'm a Real Estate Appraiser and have an office in Knoxville. I enjoy traveling and hunting when I can. Here's a few pictures to summarize the past few hunts.

My dad and I have hunted together for 26 years and have never doubled up on deer until this past January.


2013 First Antelope Hunt


2014 Coyote hunt. I wanted to blow the cobwebs out of the turkey guns before turkey season started.

I love fishing for our little native jewels. Click picture for video.


Amateur Mycologist. Eat at your own risk. But, if you slice this a 1/4" thick, dredge it in a 50/50 mix of cornmeal and flour, and fry, it will taste like a real delicate/sweat fish. Awesome flavor.


Have a good evening.

Thanks for the welcome. My antelope hunt was in Wyoming, near Cody.

The picture is very deceiving. The front one was just a yearling and the back one was probably only 1.5. I'm not sure why they look so big, but I hope the picture of the next buck I kill turns out the same way.

Thanks for the welcome. I have a tendency to exaggerate, so I normally have to post pictures to keep myself in check.
