Got these on a buddies place north of boerne.

Gonna shoot one in October, I'm ready for that low fence challenge.

Explorer is parked strategically to give me cover to sneak from porch to within' shooting distance

Why not go East Texas style and just hunt from the Explorer peep it is already off the road and almost in the barditch grin

It's gonna be so awesome, these bucks mean so much more to me than any animal I have taken behind a high fence. You know, hunting a wild animal (not tame animals like you find behind a HF) like these, the hunting is just so much more challenging

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

Now, if you bribe the owner, or even better the yardman, you will have the perfect lease!

When you get ready to do your spot & stalk, be sure to have on full camo, cover scent. Good luck, you will need it laugh

That's actually the chimney portion of the outdoor cooking area, which is better cause I can hunker down and use that as cover

I'm doing the same thing near Fredericksburg, also on a low fence ranch.

You have to be an EXPERT hunter there, because it's really difficult to get the bucket of corn out of your hand and the rifle up before the deer have swarmed you, and I won't take shots with multiple potential hits.

Looks like you got nearly 1/4 acre there; looking to sub-lease?

You'd be the same way if your nutrition came from licking rocks & eating pea gravel.. bolt

Looks like my back yard too, less the amount of bucks. My wife feeds about 7-9 does and fawns everyday, with an occasional older buck. It has been designated as "safety zone", so it would be like shooting one of the "chill'ns", cooking would stop and I'd starve to death, so I just deal with it LOL.

My hats off to the fellas that actually wear the pants when it comes to yard "ornaments".
