I am heading to eldorado this weekend for a bow hunting trip. A friend of mine has some family land there and it's nice to get away. How are the deer moving, I know it's hot but just curious. If anyone has any pics or info let me know.

Depending on the place, you're in a high deer density area. If feeders have been throwing awhile, you should see deer. Lots of deer in Schleicher and surrounding counties. Good luck and post pictures, please.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.

Just a heads up. We saw a ton of deer even with near 90 temps in the afternoon. I wasn't able to harvest a deer but I saw two shooters. One was a mid 120s 8pt and the other was a 145-150 ten. Neither would get any closer than 75-80 yards. My only advice would be to stay out of pop up blinds the deer literally freaked out when they saw them. I had much more luck cutting branches and making a natural brush blind. I had several young bucks inside bow range and a handful of does.
