    Me and a buddy of mine are headed to Brady, Tx to hunt his property 10-2 thru 10-6. He has some nice ones out there. Gonna try and put some points on the board for us IMG_3633.png IMG_3589.jpeg IMG_3591.jpeg

    no, just that county. Some lease that his boss paid his share of as a performance bonus. I'm sure he'll send me pins on OnX just to rub my nose in it.:hater:

    Yeah, it’s all free range bucks too. They own the land and let a guy farm sheep on it. Its hardly ever hunted. I shot a cull 7 point out there last year and had a shooter 8 in range but he picked me drawing the bow back.

    Two bucks I don't think I've seen before. Not sure if they are shooters though cause of the distance from the camera. Was trying to judge body wise as well. The one looks to have a drop off his right antler. 1000005280.jpg 1000005282.jpg

    Other news, I was doing some shooting this afternoon and I cocked the crossbow and I heard a loud pop. Cracked limb. Season starts Saturday. Called the bow shop and he has one all set up and sighted in. Going to pick it up and see how my arrows shoot out of it. Hopefully everything is about the same and it will take little to no adjustments. So, I should still be good to go Saturday morning!

    Weather is starting to cool , put some corn out , I waited a bit because the bears are in full roam mode. Should be in the stand shortly. I anticipate a few stalking walks.
