I thought I would share some of my favorite hunts from this past season. Many of the deer harvested this year were deer that I have watched for several years. We had exceptional rainfall during the Spring and Summer months which really helped with antler growth. Our low fence hunts yielded a higher average on score due to the excellent ranch conditions. We took several deer over 200" and many in the 160-200" class. We have begun to prepare for this coming years whitetail hunts and look forward to more big deer hit the ground!

It's pretty fun to watch 20-60 deer a sit. That's really the only way to attract them out of the south Tx brush.
