Bow Season

[tvc184]

I have three more weeks before I can make a trip to south Texas.

I sure miss the Hill Country and S. Texas hunting.  One of these days I'll get back down there.

[Lefty99]

Anybody get anything yet?  If so post some pics.  I am still working on my first kill of the yr.  Hope to have some game cam pics this weekend.  I was a little late in geting a camera and will have it out there this week.

I hear that the axis meat is really nasty. I know that you really only want the horns so bring back the meat and I was eat it for you to keep you from being miserable.

I'll keep that in mind.  I've had about 5 people tell me the same thing.        :D

i'm with tvc.  i'll be happy to help him prepare it and eat it to help spare you the emotional pain.

[westend1]

Well.  Looks like we are all going hungry for now.  Full moon, windy, warm days and lots of acorns falling right now.  Never even drew my bow, except for a turkey, which, by the way, is also unharmed.

Customer came into my wash yesterday with a picture of a nice 8pt he shot the weekend of oct 16 &17th near Toledo Bend... He had a number of nice deer on his trail cameras.

I took this 10 point cull out of the herd this morning. I arrowed him at about 20 yards.

Is the right side G3 tall like the left side?  Hard to tell because of how he is laying.

looks considerably shorter to me.  i'm gonna go out to my uncle's this afternoon and see if i can't shoot something.

Exxxxxcuse my ignorance BUT what makes this a cull, he's got good tine length, brow tines OK, could it be he's just OLD, BTW I wish we as hunters could come up with another word rather than cull...
