Got this pig yesterday morning!!!! Had 4 come in before it was light enough to see them good. They stayed around till there was just enough light for me to get a shot off. She was quartered away, and only made it 20yds from where she was shot!

While we still have a couple weeks of state wide season left, this is the last weekend for Land Between the Lakes. Just settled in for the afternoon.

Strong work, Bisch. Hogs have been leaving me alone since the end of September. I am enjoying the break, lol.

Got off work too late to hunt. But had enough time for about a 20 min drive around. Spotted this guy just across the fence from property I can hunt. I wondered where he had been hiding. Hopefully he can dodge the smoke poles the next few days.

Tried out the asat leafy tonite. Set up where I was wide open from the trail I was watching. A small tree and a bit of brush behind me.

Had eight turkeys go by at 35 yards , and at near dark a small buck came down trail as planned..

The wind had stalled out and thermals were taking my scent toward the ditch I was by.

The buck went thru my first lane and locked up about where I figured the scent stream was. He instantly looked at me from 12 yds for a few seconds and busted back the way he came 25 yards . Then stood there for a bit.

So my test was inconclusive , I really wanted a long nosed doe to come thru while I had the wind in my favor but wasn’t to be ...

Today is the last day of the general season here in Tx. I sat in a blind near the house just to see what’s coming around, and not expecting to shoot anything. I saw 5 smaller bucks and a doe. Then, I had a beautiful 12pt with split G-2’s come in. This is the first time I have seen him in person, and up close. He is an awesome looking buck, but young still, and spindly horned. This being the last day he can legally be shot, I crossed my fingers and am hoping he makes thru to next year!

First significant snow of the th year. So quiet and peaceful. Like climbing into a little piece of heaven

I chose the blind tonight. I’ve seen deer here a few times this year. The wind isn’t exactly what I’d like but it’s not terrible. It’s really putting her down outside.

Bvas · « **Reply #12 on:** January 12, 2019, 06:29:55 PM »

Hope you had better luck than me Mike. Saw one doe and little one. No shot.

I will try again tomorrow.

BrushWolf · « **Reply #13 on:** January 12, 2019, 07:16:26 PM »

Had a group of 4 doe just out of range. Like you Brad tomorrow’s a new day.

I tend to hunt out of a blind more these days. It's easier to hide movement and if it's one of my shell blinds scent is contained well until you open the window. Even pop ups make it a more comfortable sit out of the wind.
However there is something about an open air stand. Sat in a tripod last Sunday morning. A doe came in behind me. Alone with no fawn and good sized. She was directly downwind at one point and on a small swell and I was concerned she would wind me. She stuck her nose up and sniffed several times and the tripod I was in put me only about 3 feet higher than her nose. Either I as fortunate or my scent control was good enough for the situation because she didn't spook.
She took a trail around the oak trees my stand is in. With the leaves down the cover is minimal so I drew when she was in the thickest area and held until she came into a basketball size hole in the limbs. I gave her a soft grunt and she stopped perfect. I bore down and the string slipped off my fingers.
I love watching the arrow fly and hit true but at 10 yards it was there fast and cracked hard breaking ribs and the backside of the off shoulder blade.
As she ran I knew the shot was a tad high but lethal as she was running through the brush not on the trail. I saw the lighted nock stop out there about 100 yards through the limbs of the tree in front of me then disappear.
I gave it the 30 minutes of wait more because of the need to let the adrenaline calm down and I was hoping to see another one or a pig as it was only 7:24am when I shot.
The blood trail was easy and the end was sweet. This is only the second deer I've taken off of the land we bought near Abilene.

Great shot GC! Congrats on a fine doe.

My deer season ended last Sunday. I got to use the 56” Timberhawk Talon premier I traded for a couple times. Shoots pretty good for me! This was my last sit. First season in forever I haven’t tagged a whitetail. Had two chances I flubbed and let some walk. Just got some new Talon small game heads though and I’m ready for some small game action! My favorite!
