Man those are all studs. If that don't get you pumped up for the season you need to be doing something else! We are thinking going archery only on 200 acres unless maybe it just gets to late season and we need some steaks. Do y'all think this is beneficial if everyone around us is gun hunting?

Steve, I'm glad you posted pics now let's hope that folks can respect ALL of TBH'ers who enjoy your posts, and leave you alone for a change
I'm not on a lease this year, and the farm flooded and I lost everything there. I was able to save the frame for my feeder, and rebuilt it today. But I've been doing hurricane victim assistance every free minute since Harvey hit, so I didn't get to the farm until today to clean the feeder out and rebuild it. Man, that sucker was NASTY! But at least it's up, and I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that some deer show back up by youth weekend. I'm trying to get my boys their first bucks this year, that's about all I'm even gonna focus on. So I'm gonna follow your season like a crazy stalker always love seeing yours and Joogers seasons play out

Next weekend I'm going to try to put out a food plot with oats, peas, and maybe some chickory and/or clover. And may sit in the stand after and throw out some corn and see if I can't shoot one of those dang pigs that have taken over.
Haven't seen hardly any deer on camera yet but maybe if I can knock out a pig or two they'll start showing back up.

Have any of y'all ever tied your tripod to t posts, similar to a feeder? There are pigs all over the place I am at.
I'm always afraid I'm gonna slip and fall and get impaled by one. You hear it happening to guys every year.

However if you do them on your stand or feeder, drive them in the ground at the same angle as the legs that way they aren't sticking straight up. Much less likely to impale you if you fall.

The age of these buck are tricky for sure I have a bunch of bucks that are way older than you would think to look at them, and I think a large portion will get a certain size antlers and not get bigger no matter how much age they get. I mean +or- ten B&C. but that 120 isn't going to be 160 next year. Most of the time.
And one more thing if you have a lesser buck hanging around ,He needs to be taken out because they will run the other bucks away, Horn size really has nothing to do with dominance.
Sometimes you have to shuffle the deck,Lol

Well, I just got back from our place in Panola County. We got HIT BAD!!! Had one heck of a storm come thru over a month or so ago. Knocked over trees that 2 grown men with their arms wrapped around the trunk and not be able to touch each other are on the ground. Lost 3 feeders and 2 stands and out of 15 stands, only can access 5 of them. After 3 days of chainsaw'ing, can get to all but 3 now. It will take YEARS for this bottom to get back to what it was. Been hunting this place for almost 30 years and never seen anything like this.
