Back in September we bought a new ranch near Fowlerton. We put out feeders and cameras a couple days after we closed to get a feel for what was there. We only had a few deer on camera the previous owners had said there was a 12 pointer they had on camera but had never seen in person. I took it with a grain of salt that they were just talking. Well got some pics of him he did exist. Only night pics. I knew I couldn’t hunt him till thanksgiving so started putting a plan together Had to threaded one thru the brush but got it done ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/12/full-22717-325297-ad00b839_ab96_46db_af58_d3d04e7f3de8.png) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/12/full-22717-325298-0845b69d_5494_42a4_aede_6d1d79c31b3a.jpeg)

Congratulations on both counts (new ranch, first deer).  I like that whole area around Cotulla, Encinal, Fowlerton. Lots of game of all types.

Print it. Frame it and hang it.

Had a college buddy whose family owned a 5 acre cattle ranch around Tilden; sounded like great hunting country.

Well pretty sure he will hold the record for at least 2 years. I don’t plan to shoot anymore Whitetail’s for at least 2 years. Have not put a tape on him yet so not sure of the score.
