Oops! Silly me. I should have drawn more attention to my original post being made 21 days after the beginning of bow season.
Who knows, perhaps one day I too will become a deer hunting "elitest" where I need not share the woods with those lowly gun hunters.

You could live in a state that gun season is only a couple of weeks long, count yourself blessed you live in Texas. Nothing elite about it, just taking advantage of what the state allows me to do. You are perfectly capable of doing the same.

You mean like so many in the bowhunting crowd did when there was first talk of allowing crossbows during archery season. In fact, they whined so much it took the TPWD several years before they decided to do it anyway. No, I don't need an early start so I can have the woods to myself. I don't mind at all waiting with the rest of the crowd to hit the woods with a rifle.

Opening day won't find me in a stand, but Dec. 8th I'll be in either:
Big Tex Big Twin Black Top Back Tower Big Tripod Baby Tripod Bang Tree Beto's Terror or Blind Two
Ranch name is BT so the stand names needed to match.

Probably do the morning hunt in "Vomit House" and then the deer typically move better near "Puke Fest" in the evenings.
If those 2 don't work, "Splatter Pad" will get a try.

My son and I will be in the "tall one" because he thinks the "short one" gets less deer traffic...

The Honey Hole (my favorite because it is the only blind with a comfy chair)
Stubborn (This is my friend's favorite blind and he is really stubborn in general so the blind was named after him)
Owl (A family of owls took it over and pooped everywhere and post cleanup it got its name)
Bow (It is our only bow blind so it makes sense)
House (The blind is so close to the house that you might as well hunt from the living room with the window open)
