Filling yer tags
 
Anyone get one 'sides Biggen? Let's hear it.

Ronny 10-06-2004 06:21 AM

Had a big 10 coming in when out of the brush stepped a 200# hog,well the deer left, so no buck for me. But I have pork in the freezer. Shot him at 18 yards, he went 40 yards. Had a good time and I'm going back this weekend and try the big buck one more time.

biggen 10-06-2004 07:28 AM

I'll try and post pic soon. However it won't be a monster like Tomme's last year. :wink:

Landrover 10-06-2004 01:50 PM

Opening Weekend!
 
Had a spike at 8 yards for 29 minutes on Saturday....let him walk. Had the same spike on Sunday at 6 to 12 yards for 16 minutes......let him walk. He better not be around this weekend......a man can only handle so much pressure! :twisted:

LostHawg 10-10-2004 08:04 PM

Well, shot over a doe yesterday. Don't know what I was thinking, but it wasn't about the shot. Glad it was a clean miss.

hogslayer 10-10-2004 08:22 PM

Missed a 200+ lb pig.....arrow made a hard left turn, limbs in the way....

Tomme 10-10-2004 11:55 PM

Haven't had a chance to hunt yet and going nuts because of it....ok, going more nuts than usual.

walking eagle 10-11-2004 07:57 AM

Have not been to the woods yet, but I scored a strong contender for the annual awards yesterday. A non-typical that green scored 180 3/8 gross and 173 1/8 net from Tom Green County.
Will get two new LSBA members out of the deal

bowjunkie 10-11-2004 12:50 PM

WOW....Sounds like a real bruiser of a buck!

Haven't been to the woods yet either with moving into the new home and the honey do's Kim has me doing! Definitely going to Sp!kes Chester farm in 2 weeks though....will be my first hunt this year!

LostHawg 10-12-2004 02:49 PM

I don't know how you guys can stand staying out of the woods. Who shot the Tom Green deer? Was it a San Angelo person?

walking eagle 10-12-2004 04:44 PM

no, the bowhunter was Jason Alley from Austin.

biggen 10-14-2004 04:23 PM

ok here's the pic! 11yd. shot 40 yrd. recovery!

walking eagle 10-14-2004 04:46 PM

Way to go Biggen!!!!
Ron

bowjunkie 10-14-2004 07:44 PM

You da MAN! Nice buck Brother! Congrats!

LostHawg 10-14-2004 08:53 PM

Nice. Were you on a tripod, lock-on, ground, or pop-up? 11 yards is "right there" close. Good job.

biggen 10-14-2004 10:43 PM

Ground Blind!! Shoot thru mesh!! Had 7 bucks under the feeder again tonight but all were small guess the cooler weather has made the big boys seperate from the youngings, to get ready for the rut!

Chunky 10-15-2004 05:15 PM

Way to go Biggen!!!

My daughter DJ and I both got antelope in WY in Sept.

She has another pig and I a turkey so far for this fall here in TX. Not to many deer moving yet as this is the biggest acorn year I can remember. I set most of my stands up for south wind and it has been out of the north each time I have gone to the lease.

LostHawg 10-15-2004 08:58 PM

Chunky, that pic needs to go in the magazine. Give your daughter a "Great Job" for me. Just awesome.

Chunky 10-15-2004 11:04 PM

Thanks Losthawg,

I try to take good harvest pics for my friends and family. I got her shot on video, which is pretty cool. Good times for the two of us.

thanx i had fun :P cant wait until next time

Tomme 10-17-2004 04:56 PM

That's great chunky. Tell your daughter congratulations. That's one to really be proud of. Bring her on the spring hunt and we'll let her have a free entry on the concrete pig (to win, she will have to shoot it with a recurve though). She looks too good a shot with the wheels.

Chunky 10-19-2004 11:01 AM

Thanks Tomme,

we will be at the spring hunt for sure. i don't know if i will ever get her off those wheels :D she likes being able to out shoot me. i am done telling her how good she is doing...her head is getting to big for the tent blind :lol:

i will be bringing the concrete piggy for round 2, hope someone wins it this time, that thing is heavy to haul back and forth!

good hunting to everyone.

LostHawg 10-19-2004 06:49 PM

Well, I'll make an effort to be in on the spring hunt. Having it on the same weekend as the Hill Country Shootout worked out great for me. Maybe we can set it up the same again.

Thought I was finally going to get to fill a tag yesterday, but the deer saw me from 50 yards out. Wasn't sure if it wanted to trust that big blob of something in the tops of those mesquite so it just hung out snorting and stomping. It left and about 30 minutes later came back. This time it got to within 30 yards but no shooting lanes and it was more alert than a B-52 crew. The fawn busted me when an arrow hung on a limb and it lit out, so big doe just turned and walked away. I went ahead and headed in for the evening knowing I'd get no shots that evening. My quadpod was just too visible. Tonight I removed the quadpod and set up a ground blind in the same location, but, low enough to provide concealment. Maybe I'll get a shot another day.

For now, I'm getting set to take my boy out come opening day of the general. Looking forward to the time when he can shoot hunting weight bows.

Tomme 10-19-2004 10:14 PM

Anyone know when the Hill Country shoot is? I'd like to have the Grunts and Gobbles hunt on the full moon weekend in April so long as it isn't Easter of course.

Bought a finger glove today and was shooting my recurve. Seems to be more accurate than my tab. Anyone have an explanation?

The concrete pig is mine!

LostHawg 10-19-2004 10:56 PM

I've got a moon calendar at work. I'll check it tomorrow. Hopefully, they'll fall in line with each other.

Tomme 10-20-2004 12:01 AM

Tracy i've got one that Biggen sent me. The full moon weekend is the 23-24th and that's what I might shoot for if it isn't Easter. Need to check with others to make sure that this wouldn't be too late in Turkey season for them, but it would be ideal for hogs.

Now when is the Hill Country Shoot going to be?

2050z 10-20-2004 12:40 PM

I tagged a doe and two turkey the weekend of the 8th. :D

LostHawg 10-20-2004 04:01 PM

Alright Timm. Got any pics yet?

BOBSTER 10-20-2004 10:24 PM

Chunky, congrats to your daughter and yourself on the antelope.
I took this elk in Colorado in September. Have not had a chance to hunt our new lease yet. Been to busy getting everything set up. Things are looking good though, have seen lots of deer and pigs while tending to the feeders. :P

walking eagle 10-21-2004 05:00 AM

Nice bull Bobster, Congrats.
Ron

Cull 10-21-2004 05:56 AM

Have not gotten to hunt much, but did take a nice axis doe earlier this month.

biggen 10-21-2004 07:42 AM

Sounds like alot of good stories for the magazine!! Nice bull Bobster! Cull I also had a shot at an axies doe on the fellowship hunt if only she would have taken two more steps. Nice Doe!

Cull 10-21-2004 08:01 AM

Thanks Biggen. I would have gladly traded her for your great looking buck! LOL

That is the first Axis I have taken and hope to get a nice tanned hide out of the deal. The meat is unbelievable.

Tomme 10-21-2004 09:41 AM

I am really getting jealous...

k2cochran 10-22-2004 10:07 AM

Big Rob's Buck
 
:lol: Here is Robert's buck off of the Brushy Creek was it? Sorry, I don't ever know where he is going hunting next. He went here as an LSBA hunt and had a great time. He met some new friends, and enjoyed some old ones. This buck will make it into the Pope & Young record books, but has some drying to go through to get an official score one it. I believe Larry Z. and Rob scored it at 141 (but not sure... can't remember specific details) but somewhere around there. Rob is tickled pink!

Chunky 10-22-2004 09:40 PM

Congrats to Bobster, Cull, and Robert,

very nicely done! thanks for posting the pics.

T-Post 10-27-2004 12:34 PM

Boo-Yah!!!! Sweet....lots of pork for the deer meat when it shows up!

biggen 10-27-2004 05:39 PM

Nice hogs Brian! Now I don't feel so bad about given up the recurve when hunting! :oops:

biggen 11-01-2004 02:45 PM

Anything new to post? :?: Dead this week however might finally get cool!!

Okie 11-01-2004 07:47 PM

I am in a deer drought. Let's hope the cooler weather will turn the tide. :wink:
