Passed on a nice buck that I may be sorry I did. Still got a few more weeks to go.

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.

Freezers are pretty much full, but I'm waiting on a sample of jalapeno-cheddar link and reg summer sausage from Hamilton. If I like the products I'll take them a deer or two in January.

2 doe whitetail in the freezer and a nice, young 12 pt in the freezer as well as a fallow doe. Still have two more tags to finish out then I can start picking up a couple or three axis does.

Rifles are similar to boats and young women...there's no end to how much money you can pour into them without making them any more useful.

Still have all my tags and meat in the freezer, saw a very nice buck last 5 minutes of shooting hours opening weekend and didn't have a good shot. He went nocturnal, saw him on cams many times around midnight. Started seeing him on cams mid day a couple days ago so plan to hunt him end of season and/or ML season.

I shot a management buck 10 min into the season on opening day on a invite hunt. Not exciting not one I would count.


I zero’d in two out of state hunts and in west Texas.

My goal is to shank a axis or whitetail with my bow before season ends.

If that fails ill have to wait until July until I do some hunting


Kids have kept the freezer full so we arnt in a meat crisis but could use another deer at least.


For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I dropped my 18 YO daughter off at 2:30 to hunt on her own for the first time, she knows the buck we are targeting and also knows this time of year there could be a good deer come out we haven’t seen before. She has a lot of experience and has taken three mature deer and a couple of culls in the years past, but this is the first time she felt comfortable hunting on her own, i will post pictures on a separate thread if she connects on something.

Just the 10 pointer my son shot opening weekend at our place. Between work and baseball I only got to sit twice during the rut. The one I was after didn't make an appearance except on the days I was at work! Just had this new one show up missing his entire right side! Other than that I've let a few family members shoot a couple of doe. [Linked Image]

Shot a spike about a week ago, missed out on a big one that got spooked by birds and zipped by my blind. Damned birds mad
