First Hunt 2010/2011

I met my buddy at the lease this weekend to get some work done and have a little fun. We accomplished both and then some! Usually the first time out hunting during the year is to get on some pigs or a bird hunt. This year starts out a little different and kicks off the season right.

Golf at Lady Bird Johnson Municipal

Checking the trail cameras, clearing brush, filling feeders, and running the wasps out of the blinds

As you can see from the camera pics I had a couple good reasons to get up early and sit in a blind Saturday morning. Fishing, shooting the bow, cooking, and relaxing by the fire under the moon

And the early season payoff on Saturday morning was a great Axis buck! My first ever and a nice one considering this place is relatively small and low fenced. These deer got out of a neighbor's place sometime in the past few years when floods took out some fencing and they have been thriving on this place since. This one is going on the wall and will put some great meat in the freezer.
