I've killed two already. One triple beard. Had one slip in behind me this am right off roost and couldnt shoot him. Then had two come to dekes and I killed one of those. Then called in two more but the other two had whooped the decoy and knocked it over a bit and and they hung up about 80 yds out. Then had another bird start gobbling...think it was the one I killed buddy. Made a move called him in and killed him. He was the triple beard. Now I'm sitting in the GB on a field because its flooding. Been dead for the last 3 hours.

I was afraid this was gone happen. I would think if your driving straight through to the lease to be outdoors and not around other people it would fall under one of the allowed activities. iii. To engage in outdoor activity, provided the individuals comply with social distancing requirements of six feet (for example, walking, biking, hiking, or running).

Some of the stuff posted on there seems to contradict something else. I honestly think a lot of this is bs. Just dont be stupid about things and practice good hygiene and wallah

I will be driving straight to the ranch and won't be around people. I don't think I will call that democrat and ask for his permission to go to Texas.

I basically did the same thing. Only stopped for fuel and brought food with me. Then slept in my truck on the property.

Harris County will be issuing a "stay at home" order today. Unless it's different from what is usually issued in other cities, I'll probably be going this weekend still.
I'll be going from home to the ranch. Only stopping for gas. I'll be taking my groceries.
Just said "can engage in outdoor activities as long as social distancing is being implemented".

Our 6th annual Thunder Chicken Throwdown is scheduled for April 17th this year. Hopefully some of this will blow over by then. If not, I will probably need the white meat!

Whew. Blew through all the roadblocks and made it! Easiest drive ever! Hardly a vehicle at rush hour in Dallas. Saw zero cops in 100 miles to gate. Incredible and enjoying a bourbon and fire now.

First 3 weeks of our season got cancelled. We have 9 on our lease and I think the landowner was concerned about following the rules. I wont call it a law because I am not sure it really is.
