Re: 2024 Season
In 2023 I didn't get a deer with my crossbow and I want to correct that this year. I saw plenty of deer while bowhunting, but I never had a buck I was sure was legal (4 pts. on one side) or a doe come into good range. I shot one buck and one doe with a rifle, so I have plenty of venison. I only hunt...

Re: Last day successful hunt
That's a nice buck! It's good to be reminded of how quickly things can change. You were rewarded for hanging in there.

Re: OT - Advice on my new shotgun for deer or ....
Ithaca pumps are also bottom ejection just like the BPS. I have a 12 ga. BPS and a 20 ga. Ithaca model 37 featherlight. Of the two I prefer the Ithaca because it's so light and pumps more smoothly. Older model 37s are a little hard to find and, (as stated before) may require modification to accept a...

Re: CWD
Biologist with Texas Parks and Wildlife are working with Deer Farmers here in Texas to develop a deer herd that is immune to CWD. Seems most of the problem occurs with "Farmed" Deer herds. https://landassociation.org/chronic-wasting-disease-in-texas-latest-updates/ Pretty informative arti...

CWD
Here's an excellent video about CWD presented by a biologist who specializes in deer. WARNING: several deer are shot in this video. I know we all hate to watch things like that.

Re: Got some snow here!
Our season is open until January,15. I can't get back up to the farm until next weekend. The weather forecast is for about 10 days of lows in the single digits and highs in the teens with strong winds. My freezer is pretty full from rifle season so I may not try a late season hunt. I have never even...

Re: OT - Costa Rica Fishing Trip

Heart or back, I'm glad it went well and you're back on line. All surgery carries some risk, and I'm glad you are safely past it.
