Texas Bow Season! Finally!
« on: September 25, 2008, 02:11:00 PM »
Good luck to all of you Texas Tradbow shooters this Saturday.  Our season is finally here.  We just got a nice cool front to roll through the Houston area and I know the folks down here cannot wait to get into the woods and get Hurricane Ike off of their minds.  Good luck to everyone and I hope everyone has a GREAT HUNT!

Have you noticed that the times you don't get nothing while hunting, are usually the most fun you've ever had.

It came up so fast I didn't even really relize it.  This will be my first season with a trad bow (if I feel confident enough) and hopefully get in the woods a couple times this year.  School is driving me nuts and I can't go this weekend...if I had anywhere to go.  But I will be out there with the pigs and deer soon!  Good luck everyone! -Lee

ive been so busy with school that it kinda snuck up on me too. But man oh man im i ready to unwind a little. Ill be spending opening weekend close to home here in east texas. Only about 5 miles down the road from the house. Trail cam is showing consistent activity early and late so we are quite hopeful. AS long as the wind doesnt give us away, blood should be shed.

good luck to all my fellow texan brothers!!

Wished it would cool down more though. Mid-80's day and low 50's at night for awhile here in the Panhandle. I be very, very ready no matter what though. Give me my longbow, a quiver of arrows and some country to poke around in and I be happy, happy. Hunting is a joy to be added this time of year.

I've been so busy with school I totally forgot about hunting until last weekend. Went and got my license and corps permit today. Hunting pressure at the place I hunt is high during the first few weekends, so I will probably stay home and work ahead on school work. That way I have less homework and more time to hunt once the pressure eases off.

Good look to y'all though this weekend  :archer:

Yep, it's a little warn here in the Hill country, about 90 today, cools down to about 60 at night! Dress lightly. I'll be at a buddy's place in Pearl, Tx.  Good Luck to all and happy hunting!

Some of you know that I am in Law Enforcement here in Houston. I am beat from two weeks of 12 hour shifts.  I won't make it in the woods near Centerville until Saturday afternoon.

I have my 4Runner in the shop, might not get off in time to pick it up.  Hope to get it on Sat., then I have to get tires, but most of all I need the sleep. In fact, I am so tired that I am not sure if I am excited or not...LOL

We got lots of hogs, and a fair number of deer, so my Honey and I will be sharing a pop-up blind Saturday afternoon. She with her "Black Rhino" longbow, and I with one of my Widows(which one, who knows)of which I am too tired to care right now.

Anyway, my thoughts are as foggy as a morning on the river....Sooooo.

My wish for each and everyone: That each of you shoot true, and the memories of your hunt will never fade, even after the cape on your trophy has....Good Hunting to you all!

Opening morning was the only hunt I could squeeze in and it was a great hunt with hogs running everywhere.
