Opening weekend success!
« on: October 01, 2013, 09:46:00 PM »
Got down to the lease in South Texas amped up about deer season opening. Deer movement was very slow and I only saw a couple dinks opening day. On Sunday though, I went to a ground blind and was invaded by pigs at first light. This cool looking little BBQ'er came back to camp with me!

 

Fast forward to Monday afternoon. I finally got the wind right to hunt a blind we call the Taj Majal. 45 minutes before dark a nice doe came strolling by and I shot her at about 10yds!

 

Now I have to get them all processed and in the freezer so I can go back again!

That pig would be the perfect size for the smoker. Pulled pork anyone?
I'm ready for this season to start. Need some meat for chili.
Congratulations.

Congratulations   :thumbsup:
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
