It was only 6 months ago...

but it seems like 6 yrs now. Sure was nice temps back then and a rare South Texas snow. I was limited on where I could go due to sloppy pasture roads. So I picked a blind that had a gravel road close to it and got there about 20 minutes before daylight. Was very overcast and dark but the snow helped brighten it up till later when the sun came out. Thin clouds moved back in and it was very nice out. Deer surprisingly moved well from daylight till I got out around 10:30 or so.

That is nice, snow in south Texas with some good looking deer.

As always some great pics, thanks for sharing STX

Beautiful, I have hunted in East Texas snow before but we don't have deer that big.
Great pictures.

Thanks y'all. Here are a few more from that morning.

Great pics of some amazing animals....

Awsome photos. Sure would be nice to have some of that cool weather about now.

Very nice animals! One of your bucks would make at least 2, if not 3 of our little dog-sized CenTex boys!

Great pics as always!

no kidding

Stunning pics

nice pics and some great racks!

Outstanding pics of outstanding deer!

Thanks everyone.

Awesome buck and beautiful pictures

Thanks. I wishing for those temps we had back in Dec., down here all day yesterday when we hit 99 to 100 in my local area close to the coast. I can't imagine what August temps are going to be if we don't get some rain soon.

Great looking deer and pictures, would be nice to be that cool again for a day or two

thanks for sharing

Love those photos.

Very nice!

Awesome pictures

Man they've got some nice bucks of all ages on that ranch!

Sorry if you've posted it before, but can you tell us about the camera that you use? Your pictures are incredible. Thanks

Yes they do and lots of them.

I used a Canon 7D and either my Canon 100-400mm 4.5-5.6 zoom IS lens or my Canon 500mm 4.0 IS lens for those pictures. Those pictures are much smaller in MB size than the originals so that I can post them on here. I have HughesNet satellite internet so those picture MB sizes are very small. The originals are very clear and do not get near as grainy looking as they do on here.

Great pics

Thanks again everyone.

Just curious...What makes a shooter for your place?

It is not my place and I just get invites to hunt. They cull very heavily from all age classes. 2 yr old needs to be 5x5 or better typical frame or a huge framed 8 or 9 pt. 3 yr olds need to gross 150 or better. 4 yr olds need to be in the 170 gross. Any age buck that grosses 180+ lives and they do not hunt those type deer. They shoot very few of those 180+ bucks and most die of old age, go downhill at older ages, die from rutting or die of natural causes.

Great pics as usual!
