Well I had a nice weekend for the MLD opener. Shot a big hog we've had on camera Saturday afternoon. Saw a nice wide mature 8 with some great brow tines, very low light in the morning so I was having trouble with getting a crisp focus. Got some great light to shoot with Monday morning so I took a shot of this almost white doe. She has a fawn the same color as well. Looking forward to the season, we have some great bucks on camera............cheers

That 8 looks like a shooter. Is that a drop on the left beam?

Any particular reason the 8 is not shown next to the hog on the ground?

Nice pics.


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

Camera pic? They're MLD. Marc is probably waiting on a bigger one. Season is long.

Yeah, I was just curious why HE passed on that one. I’m on MLD also and I’ve passed on many shooters to give kids or friends a crack at a particular buck. Guess I should have worded it different.

Very cool pics! And dig that light coated doe!

2 reasons, one is too early in the season unless he’s my best ever, two because the Muley season is not MLD on our ranch so it hasn’t started yet so I wanted to keep my powder dry for now...... I was tempted and I would be happy with him if I get another chance at him.....
