Well, rifle season kicks off in 2 days. I'll miss this first week, but, I'll be in the field the 13th-18th. Can't wait to get out there. New moon and perfect weather expected. Rut should be kicking off about the same time too. Last weekend, I got some feeders set and brush blinds put together. Cleared a few shooting lanes through the mesquites and set my camera in a new spot. I can't wait to see what's back there. Since the place I've always hunted got leased, the owner moved me over to a smaller 70 acre place. I think it may be just as good if not better. There are trails everywhere through it, but it's way thicker. We'll see. Take a look at these bruisers to get you fired up... s277.photobucket.com/albums/kk69/Rodster71/?action=view¤t=RANCHO1.flv |

If you come up on a herd like that, is it possible to shoot more than one? Is it legal?
I think I could do it.

Depends on which county your in. Some are 2-3 buck counties, meaning you can shoot 2-3 a season. Some are 1 buck counties, which I am in. So, if I see this, it's take your pick.
The good thing is, if I miss, there's other options.

This video is something one of their VP’s took a few weeks ago. Yeah I have connections. I can't hit the pines until the weekend of the 13th either. I'm on call this weekend. I'd rather have call duty this weekend and all next week anyways. That way, I don't have it for the rest of the year. Score. |

That video is sick.
I think I might be able to hit one of those, too.

DB - If you get a chance to hunt that place, you better have one hanging on your wall next fall.
Next week is going to kill me. I hate knowing that so many people are out drinking, bullshitting around a campfire and pissing in the woods, while I'm at work. If I could take off work from Sep 1st to Dec. 31st, I would.

READ THIS TEXT FIRST BEFORE LOOKING AT THE PICTURE !! What a buck and doe combination. If you can't see the buck, wait a few minutes and concentrate on the left side of the photo. (The buck scored 184 5/8 Boone & Crockett Points; for any one who cares). Ms Bowman, 28, single, lives in San Antonio and owns the Bowman Ranch; all 8000 acres, located 15 miles east of Carrizo Springs. Again, the buck is on the left.  |

 This one was taken off of my lease this morning. My buddy has been after him for the last two years. Not a bad buck. |
