TOPIC: Sore feet and a heavy seng bag (47.4 oz today).

Hey Guys.

I took a day off work today and me and my partner went seng digging again.

We went back to a place we hunted two years ago and had decent luck then. We left a lot of small seng and planted a lot of berries then.

Today we visited 3 different main hollows and walked out a bunch of side hollows. Covered a lot of ground and man I have sore feet right now.

We did not find any real big seng but did find quite a bit. One 4 pronger, and not sure how many hundred 3 prongers (some nice ones).

We planted several hundred berries today and left a bunch of small seng to hunt another day.

It shows 54.3 oz on the scale, but the bowl weighed 6.9 oz.

47.4 oz of green seng. Not a bad day.

I am already starting to have those (after the hunt) seng vision flash backs. You know after you have been on a long seng hunt and after you get home and clean up and rest a bit, every time you blink your eyes or turn your head to look at something you see a 3 prong

It usually goes away by the next day.

Here is a pic of that big wad of seng we collected !

you got right after it today ! nice dig man ..

Congrats to you guys tnhunter a very good day indeed and way to spend the time planting and leaving small seng,you guys are what its all about,respect,and appreciation for what you love.Good Haul guys.

TNhunter thats a really nice day. Days like that are hard to come by around here but im hoping for at least a pound wednesday.Theres a lot of people around here that digs 2 prongs and that really hurts the ginseng population after a few years of that. I always pinch the stems off of the little ones and hope for the best.Went digging yellow root today and seen where someone had been digging ginseng already.

What a day, congrats!

Impressive! Congrats on a good day of digging.

Just wanted to know if anyone knew anything about ginseng in New York? I will be heading back to WV on 9/24 to do a little ginsenging. I am going to check out some woods in Cherry Valley, New York (Otsego County) on Saturday. I haven't run into anybody that knows much about it. Any information would be helpful!

Thanks!

Great day! Congrats TN!!!
