MLD Permit

We are getting on the Managed Lands Deer permit and I've been working on supplemental feeding for our deer, ducks and dove for this year.  Here are a couple protein feeders I'll be trying out from Boss Buck.


Supplies to build pens around the corn/protein feeders to keep out feral hogs and cattle.  The pvc pipe is for water control in the beaver pond.  More on that later when it gets done.



Using hog rings to join each panel.




Finished pen and feeder.


Turkey Hunt 2012

I was in San Antonio on some business and stayed at the ranch to try to get a turkey.  My buddy Dave and his daughter went out Saturday morning with me.  After finding some birds and a couple failed attempts at getting one to come in close enough we came around a corner to find 4 gobblers.  Dave called from the truck and they started heading our way.  I hopped out with the gun and a decoy and Dave got them on the edge of my range.  I took the shot (47 yards) and dropped this big one!


 Great bird with an 11 inch beard!
