Archery Talk

I learned something new today....I had no idea acorns fell this late in the year (or early in the year I guess). Did a super quick scouting trip this morning (when I climbed down) because I heard some blujays going crazy a couple hundred yards west of me. I found this area that's roughly 40 yards × 40 yards that was completely tore up with deer sign. Deer poop, tracks, cracked acorns; it looked like hogs had been in there but there's no hogs in the area. Anyhow, thats where I set up this afternoon, in a small patch of oaks in the middle of a CRP field. 3 bucks came in at 4:15, all of them were roughly the same size so I shot the closest one.

Thanks. We weaseled his kid into dragging it out, they'll be cutting it up in my shop in the morning. I'll help them if I'm not

Thank you!

Thank you!

 

I have a really small bucket list...not interested in shooting elk, moose, antelope....but pigs? Damn I want one!!
Good luck!

 

You let me know when you’re ready and I’ve got about 160 acres of land in Texas where you’re welcome to kill as many as you’d like.

My wife has family near Dallas, I may need to visit them!

 

My land is about 1.5 hours from the center of Dallas

just south of Richland Chamber reservoir if you know where that is

I like the little tikes turtle shell catch pan

 

Thank you! Thats been our blood catcher for about 20 years. Highly recommend!

 

What, you guys don't use a plastic barrel you accidently borrowed from the fair grounds like everyone around here does?

 

My kid had a turtle sandbox when he was about 3, that's the lid to it. When my wife saw it catching deer blood the first time she was less than impressed. But I was like, "who puts a lid on a sandbox?" We never did buy sand for that turtle.

 

Communists put lids on sandbox, thats who.

 

Just a red-blooded redneck.

 

Made the 90 minute trip to bass pro because I couldn't wait any longer. Got some arrows and a release. Went to archery range in my neighborhood and had some fun as the sun was going down.

Gonna have to sit down with the wife and explain to her where I'll be most days now.
