Life changes have made it hard to be in the woods these last two years. Fortunately I was blessed to be able to go once during mz with a buddy. Thanks to him for putting me on one.

Was able to score on a doe opening day of blackpowder in the CWD zone. Between that day and opening of duck season, been able to go a few times myself and taking a young kid in hopes of getting him one. He's seen a number of younger bucks but after telling him he was gutting this one, he's...

Great looking buck. Congrats...it can all change in an instant can't it?! Nice Christmas present.

I’ve seen two of anti-venom’s post. They reminded me of the type of posts an adolescent used to post on here.

Congrats. Awesome memories. Mine is too busy now 😩

Grew up in the Bartlett area and had never heard any until college at TTU. Was like "what the heck is that"? As a wildlife guy was thoroughly intrigued with seeing them. Several years later, heard my first flock in Fayette County and was told that was a big deal by some birders. Cool...

Congrats dad and to the young lady. As the proud papa of a girl, I LOVE to see them in the field hunting with us daddies. I've got several girls on my Trap team and love having them. Kudos to all you dads out there who get your girls involved. Not all dads do if you can believe that.

Lord what a deer. Side note, those pictures look like they were taken at Olan Mills.

Facts!

Started deer hunting in 82 with my uncle, shot my first doe with my dad's Marlin 35. Had no idea how to gut the thing but I had read several how-to's in Field & Stream & Outdoor Life. Still butchered it however. Those books were golden. Read one several years ago and it was trash...not sure...

Round here we have black locust and honey locust trees. HL are the ones with the wicked thorns. They most definitely eat the HL, not sure about the BL. Arrowed a doe one time with one in her mouth.

Very nice!

Long drive and watching the dog work on the few we scratch out...plus its a sickness.

With a name like Dixie, she can't help but be awesome. Congrats.

True but getting up at 3:15, eating breakfast and getting skunked is not as attractive as it used to be. waking up at 7:30 and drinking coffee in the recliner as I get older is starting to pull on me some mornings.
