has anyone in the area had luck rattling bucks up? I haven't had any luck rattling this year. One of my lease members shot a nice buck yesterday. Hard to tell what it scored in the pics but it look to be in the 140in range.

It was at his property not far from our lease. He told me the taxi would call him with score. Pretty nice deer for the area.

I'd say, I've been out there in southern Taylor county for a few years on and off and you just don't see that class of buck

I'm not one of them. Biggest one I've seen in person was high 130 and he never gave me a clear shot.

127? Isn't that by the home place restaurant? Sorry I mis spoke. I meant 207 if you go south on Lemons Gap Road, south of CR 621 you run into 207, which intersects to the west and takes you out towards Graham Lake and Moro There is a new water pump station on that corner Just a few yards west of that intersection on the north side in the corner of that wheat field they are prepping a pad for a drilling rig... and 3 more are coming....
