Joe's third stalk on the same group, but different sendaro...

Sorry for the late post, I was on the week 1 hunt. First 3 days were cold and slow. Monday we had freezing rain and the only Javelina spotted were when Tony came and picked me up and we were driving back to the ranch. They had us pegged and though I tried to put on a stalk I was unsuccessful.
Tuesday was cold and windy and I was in my blind 6 hours when I decided I needed a walk. Still hunted for an hour and coming back to my blind saw 2 deer right in front of it. Kept walking in and the next thing I know a Javie is eating in front of my blind. I was able to stalk in to about 18 yards and took a shot but the Javie spun and the shot hit the jae. She spun 3 times and the arrow dropped out and she disappeared in the brush. Only found one drop of blood and I am sure the Javie recovered.

A surprise birthday party for Smokin Joe.

Wednesday I saw nothing until after shooting light walking to get picked up by Tony. Then saw 3 cross the road. They do not have very hood eyesight and will let you get close if you move slow.
Thursday was the day, after trying to scare this spike away for about 4 hours I finally gave up and he was 7 yards in front of me at 1730 when a family of 6 Javie came in. I took the first shot offered and spined her. I came out of my blind and put a finishing shot in her and took a pic. I used my bow to hold the camera so it is not in the picture. But it is a Wilson Brothers Black Widow 48 lbs at 28 inches with Arrow Dynamics arrows and Wendel Woodsman heads.

Friday at 1730 again I had a family come out and got my second Javie. She ran into cover and as I was getting ready tovstsrt looking for her more Javies came out. 3 different family groups. I texted Tony and told him to come over and guard my blind while I looked for my Javie. I was about 20 yards in the mesquite when I heard him hit his Javie right before I recovered mine. This entailed crawling on hands and knees about 30 yards cutting a tunnel with pruning shears.

I snuck up on this hog last night at about 7:30. I got about 16 to 17 yards from him but my bow light wasn't bright enough to light him up enough to take a shot. I have a light on that set up now so maybe I'll get a 2nd crack at him tonight. After I left 2 more joined him later.

It's the hog facing to the right....

Javalina running everywhere. Today, I just had a stalk on two big boars, i got caught moving.

As some of y'all know, I sold a bunch of my heavy long bows a few years ago, to make room for a fifty to fifty two pound bow for mom latter years coming up. The only heavy long bows I have left are my Thunderstick MOABs. They are one piece and I do not like to pay the airlines more money for a tube going there and back if I fly. So I had Jim Neves make me a Centaur triple carbon long bow, which I have killed only animals with tusks, most of which we're on these Laredo Tusk Round Up hunts the last 3 years. Three hogs and five javelina. So I named the bow Tusk. 58" 50@ 28.

I haven't done a photo shoot with Tusk yet. The only pictures I have of that bow are with animals that I have taken with it. I will be doing a photo shoot this week or next of that long bow. But in the meantime....

Jim made me a Super Curve to add to my lower weight bow arsenal. When Jim saw the bow in completion, he called me and told me that he wanted to keep it. That was so pretty and also that it looked like a Dragon. So jim named it for me, at least the first name. When I saw it, put together and strunh the first thing I thought of was "Wicked".

So meet the Wicked Dragon....
