Don’t forget special day designations when planning Thanksgiving deer hunts If you're not a bow or black powder hunter, The “Real" deer season opened Oct. 23. That's when the modern firearms sea son kicked off and the prospects are for another good season. Throughout the 1998 deer hunting season, more than 316.000 hunters harvested 427,000 deer, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division. WRD estimates deer populations to be over one mil lion for the 1999-2000 hunting season and Georgia hunters have another deer hunting sea son to look forward to. “Hunters have an excellent opportunity to harvest a deer this hunting season," said Dan Forster, .VRD Assistant Chief of Game Management. “Deer harvest numbers should be high due to a number of fac tors. Reproduction rates were good because of the mild win ter, either sex days were cn. ’ in both the northern and southern zones, and new public areas are open during the 1999-2000 hunting sea son." WRD operates more than 80 wildlife management areas which i provide a variety of hunting options, including archery, primitive weapons, modern firearms, adult-child hunts, ladies-only hunts, and hunts for the physically dis abled.

Perry held the Bull dogs to only nine first downs in the entire game and shutdown their passing game, allowing only 44 yards passing on the evening. Although the win vaulted the Perry season to only 2-7, their record hasn’t affected their home game attendance. The Panthers played in front of an enthusiastic full house at the Pitt Nov. 5. Perry took the 7-0 lead early when, after taking the opening kickoff and driving down field, Dontrell Green scored on a 1- yard run. Robert Warren made the point after touchdown kick. Collins spoke highly of his sophomore kicker who had to pull extra duty Friday evening. “That was the first game Robert punted for us," said Collins. “Ronnie Collier had been punting before he got hurt; Robert is really coming through for us and getting the job done." On their next possession, Macon County took a gamble on a fourth-and-short situa tion and turned it into a first down. A series of short, effec tive runs followed as the Bull dogs kept after it, even after being backed up on a holding penalty. On a fourth down gamble, the Bulldogs, on the four-yard line, failed to convert and handed the ball over to the Panthers. Trey Green carried the ball 11 yards just as time ran out in the first quarter. Green, who didn’t play as a sophomore, picked up 119 yards against the Bulldogs. “He runs hard and gives us things that we don't have," Collins said of Green, a junior. Michael Robinson scored just 10 seconds into the sec ond quarter on a 63-yard touchdown pass from Dontrell Middle “Our defense worked hard, especially in the overtime peri od, “ said Belcher. “They had a sense of urgency." Latimore agreed adding, “During the first half, our defense shut down the half back from Tabor. As the game went on. he started running harder and our defense had to work harder." “It was a great game, said Belcher. "You have to give cred it to the Tabor Middle School players and coaches. They were down 8-0 but came back. “ Leaders praise new county champs By ALLEVE KENT Home Journal Sports Calling them “great repre sentatives of their school and our community," Perry Mayor Jim Worrall was just one of several people singing the praises of the 7th grade Coun ty Football Champions this week. “We are proud of the whole group and what they have accomplished," the Mayor said. “Those coaches just do a super job." Worrall. drawing on his experience as a coach at Perry Middle School many years ago, knows just how incredible the accomplishment is and plans, as mayor of Perry, to recognize it formally. “It is already on my agenda for the city council meeting to have a resolution drawn up honoring the team." Worrall said after the resolution was passed a presentation would be made to the school. Perry Middle School Tom Gupton said that he was not Continued from page 6A Green. Robert Warren's kick was again good. Robinson had three catches for 100 yards, and is one of Collins' ‘walking wounded", playing although he has sus tained injuries this season. Perry scored once more before the half. The third touchdown was set up by a Macon County fumble on the 39-yard line. Trqr Green took the pitch and carried the ball to the one-yard line and then up the middle for the score. Warren added the PAT to give Perry a 21-0 lead. During the second half, the Bulldogs turned to a ground game and tried to run the ball, but the Panthers defense held steady and consistently shut down the attack. Perry will travel to Cochran Nov. 12 for the last game of this season against the winless Bleckley County Royals. Collins called the Royals an improving football team and applauded their performance this season especially against Dodge. “They did a good job against Dodge, which speaks a lot. They played Dodge as well as anyone in the region has," Collins said. Collins said that he will arrive in Cochran expecting to find Bleckley very motivated. “They will want to end their season on a positive note," he said. Although the season hasn’t quite turned out the way any one expected, Collins is still holding a positive attitude about his '99 squad. "Our numbers are up. and things are on the upside around here. Wfc have had good player participation. I guess you could call beating Macon County a moral victory. We have lost several key play ers, but people have stepped into roles." Continued from page 6A “The win speaks a lot of the pride and character of our kids. Mentally thqy made adjust ments out on the field. That's our job, to get them in a posi tion to be able to do that," Belcher said. “I am proud that these kids won the championship. But the thing that makes me even prouder as a coach is what came from within these play ers. They were in a tough spot and still had the desire to do better. That will carry them far in life," he added. surprised at all about the young men's accomplishments stating that he knows the cal iber of the group. “These guys are real deter mined. They had a goal and they achieved it. They work at their grades and work on their _football. “ Gupton said, speaking of the overtime period in the championship game said that the players had a “gut-check". “Their backs were against the wall but they reached down inside and gathered all the strength they could. They came through for themselves and their school."
