I got to Sisterdale on Saturday morning to 7 Sisters Cabins at 10:00 - more on that later . I met with Cody at 3:30 for the afternoon hunt . Cody was a dang good guide and did all he could to accomadate an old guy like me . He was one heck of a nice guy and did everything he said he would do . We hunted a pop up on a field over looking a big coastal field boardering the Guadalupe . We had alot of deer come out but no big bucks .So we were to meet up at 5:45 the next morning . We got in a 8' tower blind over looking a feeder at 100 yards next to the river . When the feeder went off about 5 minutes later you could here the does "talking" to each other on the way in . They came in an then a very nice buck came in and my heart started pumping. Then Cody said " your buck is coming in -get ready . Then this toad of a buck came and he was towering over all the rest of the deer . He was not the one I orginally wanted but I knew this was the one I had to have . I put him in the cross hairs of my 270 and when he cleared I let it rip . I looked at Cody and he said "you missed him "!! I sat there for what seemed like forever and then told him there was no way I missed that buck . We went to the feeder and found 2 chunks of lung and the party started . We waited a bit and went into the thick brush and there he was 40 yards out . As I said he was not the one I figured on but the buck had 33 1/2 " length BUT he had over 6" bases with awesome mass . The buck was aged at 9 years old had we wighed him at 300 # ! I could not ask God for a better buck and nicer people like Diane and Cody to work with . I would suggest them to anyone - anytime . Thanks again guys . I do want to recomend if you stay down there to do yourself a favor and stay at 7 Sisters Cabins . It is centrally located to your hunting and a great place for the family to stay while you hunt . It is on a working ranch with Alpacas , donkeys , horses, and chickens for the kids to play with , they are totaly tame . The cabins had everything you need including a beautiful deck overlooking the hills and a awesome and big patio with fire place . This was truly a trip of a life time .

Tim & Lynn Guenter-Coker.... Thanks so much for the great story Tim..... I love it when the hunter takes you into the field with them... The pix are awesome but the third pic in this thread says it all! Love the look on your face Tim.... Cody captured the moment for sure! ( he takes great pix ). Lynn Guenter-Coker...you are very welcome! Tim was great to work with....he knew exactly what he wanted and planned really well. The pleasure was ours! Can't wait to see the taxidermy! Diane

This story excites the heck out of me as i am scheduled to hunt with Cody June 13th. This will be my first axis encounter and boy excited doesnt even begin to describe how i feel. Now i just have to patiently wait and watch the time tick by till the 13th rolls around. Great job and congrats Tim on a wonderful looking buck.
