643 Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 We had 3 deer n 1 hog taken west of Lumberton, all were personal best, 18"8pt, 16"8pt, my 7y/o nephew got his first deer (doe) I had 9 in food plot at the same time along with a 17" 9pt, another legal buck showed at the feeder a little later, we had 6 hunters Sat morn all but 1 saw deer and IMO the 1 that didn't was in the best stand, I'm thinking the hogs have taken it over the last week...

tvc184 Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I wish that I could take out about 100 hogs on our lease. About the only way to keep them out of an area is to fence off the feeders and they will move to another area without fencing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bullets13 Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 my thoughts exactly, tvc. it's hard to beat a weekend of barbecue, poker, hunting, and the great outdoors (plus satellite tv to catch some college football). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big_buck_hunter Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I broke the silence in the creek bottom @ 6:20 AM, Barely light enough to see clearly. 1 shot. Clean kill! No backstrap though.... killed a darned ole coyote. Oh well. The wind was out of the East and I figure it was worth the bullet. I haven't fired a shot since. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronco1 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I am on a new lease around Alto and I saw a doe, my son saw a 4 point and a doe. We are the only ones on the lease and we didn't have time to get up there before opening weekend. So opening day we put up a couple of tree stands and a tripod. Threw out a little corn and saw deer that Sunday morning, I was pretty encouraged. We also put out 2 old game cams we checked them 7 days later. I reluctantly put out some Deercane at the request of my 13 year old, the doe is pawing at a spot on the ground where we poured it.[IMG]http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r180/mabethea/PIC_0007-1.jpg[/img][IMG]http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r180/mabethea/PIC_0013-1.jpg[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outanup Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 Still toooooo many acorns and way too green in W. Texas (Menard). Deer not coming to feeders like normal but, this will all change when acorns are gone. Leaving in the morning to try my luck again. Good luck to all. On a side note we have killed 9 hogs and seen adequate deer, just no mature bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
