NRut it's better than working if you're like me your covered up in coyotes. Shot 3 and pretty good pig too. Way too many song dogs around my place.

Next week with sustained cold weather may help can't be much slower. I also have lots of yotes, maybe even a buried den under some large boulder type rocks on my western side of property, sure sounds like it predawn.

I know some rattler dens are there so I haven't researched it much.

As far as the coyote situation, we're just covered up with them. Called up & killed 2 last trip out at night. If the deer hunting is slow, we'll hunt all night and sleep all day. As far as the rattlers are concerned, I'm guessing you GAS them out of the dens? Like to see that done just one time. Cold temps can't hurt anything, just hoping the rain holds off, small chance daily next week.

Good luck !


Good luck to you Sir.......

Saw just the 8pt. I grunted inlate yesterday morning while hunting morning/afternoon yesterday. Been slow, in about 5 total days hunted this season seen a nice 10pt and spike right before Thanksgiving and yesterday's 8 pt. Seen a lot more oncamera, mostly at night.

Packed my things this morning and headed to Rockwall. In 4 hunts, I managed to see 1 4pt. buck and 2 young doe. I’m somewhat puzzled by this season and the lack of deer movement. In large part, the acorn crop is unlike I’ve ever seen on my place. Upon driving the cart back to the barn this morning, the road was littered with acorns in spots. The problem is they were green acorns and some with caps attached. I personally have never seen edible acorns on the ground this late. Oh well, be back out the last weekend and see if we can make something happen. Good luck to those hunting the rest of the week.

I hope you get one! It's been tough this season. I had the best deer movement I've seen this year Tuesday and Wednesday morning with cold weather. Good luck!


It's not how you fall, It's how you get up.

I'll be going out next weekend hopefully get my son one a spike we've seen on camera. Same here not much activity. Strange we had some nice bucks that we let walk last year. One which was seen last day of the season and we didn't see them this year.
