[Doc Nock]

It should be interesting for sure.  Maybe you can use the sand traps as pit blinds. Or the port-a-potties as fixed blinds, just leave the door open.  It comes with a cover scent and seat.  Plus you can drink as much coffee as you ant not worry about having to pee into a little bottle.

OK OK, Fido----Hey, I'm not pushing you---just excited about the possibilities     ----let us know how it works out.  I know only a few golfers, and as obsessive as they are, they will want you to work out a par designation for each green, and some kind of handicap system.

Seems like the golf scene attracts animals.
According to a friend who is a volunteer worker,we have deer come on the golf course here and inspect the artificial grass on the greens, looking for something green to eat in the winter time, I guess.
And ravens swoop down and pick up a ball in play, so the course'Raven Rule' is to play the ball where the raven drops it.
So far no hunts have been organized.

Well, I talked to the greenskeeper today and he asked me how much I charge! I said NOTHING! He said "Get after it then". He's going to show me where they are coming in at and the areas they are damaging.

Got a green light. Now to call in some help. Any of you are welcome to join in!

Good fun, fido dog!  I might not have moved away from Midland if I had been able to hunt golf courses at night.  

Wish I had a trip planned down to Texas so I could take you up on your offer.  Have enough fun for both of us and post pictures!

I'ld love to help you out, but its a bit of a commute.  Good luck and make some pork chops.

[Chester Thompson]

Dang, why are you all the way across the state of Texas? I will have to try and make it out there.

[fido dog]

Chester,

Go outside with your car keys. Open car door. Sit in the driver's seat. Turn on car. Put in "drive". Push down on the long skinny pedal on the right. Stop when you get here.

It ain't brain surgery.

I don't have my schedule for the week yet, but I'm going on my first night off.

[wollelybugger]

Thats when Ray Charles golfs, at night.

[fido dog]

Well, heading out Sunday afternoon. Anyone in West Texas wanna' come?

I hope I get one!

[Gerardo]

Good Luck , it sure is going to be fun!!!!

[fido dog]

Nothing.....Zip, Zero, Zilch, NADA!

So I got out around 4:30 to check out where they were coming in and the damage that was being done. The Greenskeeper had noted it's in the tens of thousand dollar range.....this year alone.

I found a NICE spot for an ambush. They come across a road from some open land right into a small patch of yuccas. The yuccas offered me several shooting lanes if they had been built as a blind. Right across the road there were fresh tracks and evidence of rooting the night before. I was thinking WOO HOO! I'm gonna connect! I can do this!

Wind was in my favor....right in my sniffer. I laid out some bait and took a squat (My buddy Dave at my side with a spotlight). Can't forget Dave! He had a night off from his girl and the combination of 7 kids...LOL! He was a great help by just falling asleep in the rough. So I sat for a bit then heard "steps" on the gravel. Waited for about 15 minutes and slowly rose to nothing. Sat for another hour or so...watched some falling stars going through the Milky Way and truly enjoyed a small town West Texas night. I think I found the Com Cast Satellite if anyone has a SAM.

Had a good time. Didn't get a hog so we got a McRib at  McDonalds on the way out......fitting.

As we left, the Greenskeeper had told me they shot 3 big black ones the night before. He noted they are there one night and gone the next. Like they plan this out.

Looking forward to next week.
