Gun Opener

I hunted Friday night with the stick and string down in the oak bottom.  Greg sat on the high line and saw one doe that didn't get within range.  Saturday it stayed foggy till an hour or two after shooting light and saw nothing either hunt.

I also hunted Thursday evening and saw zero deer but watched 2 Bald Eagles fly around for a few seconds.  Incredible!

 

ETEX Oats and Old Deer

Oats are coming up well and we will be hunting over them this opening weekend.  Finally got some pics of mature deer moving through the area so we hope the rut is about to kick off!

 

Highline Oats

Shooter 10

Potbelly half rack needs to die!

Old 8

7 doe in one picture...What?!?

 

Hill Country

I hunted the lease in Wimberley last weekend and almost literally got blown out of the tree.  Finally got a good cold front but could have done without the 20mph wind all weekend.

 

The grey ghost was burning fossils on this stretch of highway!

 

 

Refreshments

We never starve at camp...smoked a brisket, shoulderclod, and pork butt on the BGE.

 

Hunter digging in!

 

 

 

 

Sneak Lights

Installed some green LEDs to add a little more stealth (and they look mean)!

 

 Here's a video from a slow hunt last year.  I hope to do more taping this year if we get water and ducks.

Waiting on Water

The beaver pond is full of smartweed and the blind is brushed in.  We just need some water to fill it up for the ducks.

 

The Grey Ghost should be sitting in at least 10 inches of water here!

We have had some rain the past few weeks and the oats have germinated and are growing.
