Great surprise deer hunting Texas
« on: December 29, 2011, 03:40:00 PM »
I have always wanted one of these amazing animals.  I was sitting in my brush blind this year on a recent trip to Texas.  It was just getting light when I see these 4 eyeballs looking out into the sundero about 60 yds away.  They popped and growled and fought with each other for about 20 min. and bedded down about 100yds away.

Well, I wasn't going to shoot them where I was sitting so I got up and stalked down the edge of the sundero taking about 45min.  I finally get to them bu the sun had rose over the mesquite and live oaks and as they say, sun in my face wind at my back.  Good thing they are blind.  I made my first shot at 20yds and he took off running.  I knew I wouldn't find him if he holed up so I took off after him. (not my smartest move).  I only found him because I could see my pink fletchings hanging out and moving around.  After a follow up shot and him chasing me through the cactus like a pissed off hair ball.  I got my trophy.  I was proud to say the least.

Pretty wicked sounding those teeth clacking together and a wounded rodent with tusks coming at you!  Those critters are built for bowhunting.  Cool trophy, thansk for sharing your hunt with us on the gang.
