Went out late morning yesterday because of the rain. What a crazy day.... deer moved throughout the rest of the day. Finally right at 5:00 what I consider a shooter came in from the west moving east. I snapped a pic with my camera grabbed my 30-06 and shot him before he got back in to the trees. Measuring on the hunt stand ap it was a 373 yard shot.

If you shoot a young deer because a neighbor will shoot it, you are that neighbor.

Heath, Mr. T, Tye - great deer as usual from our Eastland county representatives. samh, here I was thinking you only hunted public land and depended on draws? Great photos and a nice buck. As much spare time as I've had this year, I haven't hunted near like I had planned. And I've yet to see a legal buck as well. Most action was November 1st - 15th. I have a free choice feeder they're killing but have yet to see anything substantial there. I finally put a camera out so something's got to give.

samh, here I was thinking you only hunted public land and depended on draws? Great photos and a nice buck You get that from a previous post or do we know each other? A friend called and asked if I would help him and get on a lease with him, I said I would think about it. My wife asked what he wanted I told her and she said "you call him back right now and tell him yes!!!!" So I actually had no choice in it...glad she is so convincing. I do hunt the drawn hunts, I got lucky again this year and will spend the week before Christmas on the Matador WMA on a doe hunt. Years I don't catch a drawn I hit the road for stand by chances or hunt friends or families land. The good thing about a lease is a chance to spend as many hours as I want in the stand watching deer turkeys or what ever.
