In again, we had a great year. We harvested 4 mature bucks and a few does. Our deer numbers where really high this year. Had some young studs we let walk so they should be bruisers this year. Look forward to another exiciting year.
This will be my first year in Sonora this coming season. We have around 2700 acres with 9 people. I'll be on the glasscock ranch, haven't looked @ it yet, but my lease manager on my other lease manages this one too. He's shot some nice bucks the past 3 years! Really excited about getting out west!
Get after it! He would sure look good on the wall wearing that velvet. Looks about finished out too. Its dry as a popcorn fart, he should be on that feed pretty regular!
Another one with a bullet hole. 1/4 mile from the fence. Hopefully it was shot on the other side of the fence and not on our side by a poacher. I figure a poacher would have at least taken the head. Either way, it stinks to lose a young up and comer.
I'll let him rub out first. Not a fan of shooting them in velvet.
Maybe I can just tie my wife's score[emoji51]
Oh and speaking of her axis. She now holds the LSBA state record. Her buck edged the leader from 1998 out by 1/8". Hers netted 161 7/8. He looks good on the wall with the rest of her mounts[emoji51]

Darn. I've found 2 like that on our place and hope it was from fighting or neighbors.
We heading out Friday morning for the weekend to fill feeders eat a ribeye and drink a few Barley pops. I called Rafter W today 20% protein was $10.75 and corn was $5.90 if you buy a ton or more.
