Well, I got to go hunting for a few days this week and faired pretty well. The first afternoon I had a nice buck come in real early, only to get run off by a ranch rat (javelina). That was a fatal mistake by the ranch rat! Here is the pic:

After I shot the javi, I waited and only saw one little nubbin' buck for the rest of the afternoon. Then at about 5:45pm I catch some movement under me and there he is; the nice 9 point that the javi had run off earlier. He walked right into my hand thrown corn like it was scripted, and stopped quarterewd away at about 10yds. I let another arrow go and about 100yrds later, here is what I found:

The next day was uneventfuland no shots were taken. On the third afternoon I broke out my #2 longbow which is a twin of my go-to bow. I had not taken any animals with this bow and was eager to get her christened. Right before dark, a pack of pigs came into the feeder. There were about 20 pigs and it was real hard to tell where one pig ended and the next one began. I thought I was not going to get a shot before it got too dark when one of the little one busts out of the pack right in front of me at about 9yds. I let the arrow fly and now my #2 longbow is experienced in the field. Here is a few pics of the little boar:

It was pretty good way to end the year and I can't wait to see what 2011 brings!
