Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Opening morning in Texas

Building this in between hunts. I prefer metal, but can do wood

Got a pig with Kimber BGR in 280. Dave Dixon made me a fine deal on it

Ugly trophy. Pretty rifle.

Man you have more hogs than you can shake a stick at.

Congrats to your amigos and their great bucks.

Ain’t no trophy, just target practice

Nice job hanco,
looks like you shot the [bleep] outa that one!

120 Barnes at 200 yards had her leaking pretty good out both sides. Cshit was coming out !!

Did everything right but got skunked Saturday Morning!



No Joy.

Nailed this guy Saturday eve.



Did everything wrong Sunday morning



He must have had a death wish.

Congratulations fellas. I managed to take a Fallow buck. Besides that just does and yearlings showing up.

As always Geedubya, Sweet rifle. Nice buck as well.

No deer harmed by me opening weekend. Just a couple of big uglies.

Hunted 5 days on our lease in Comfort. Had 2 small hogs lined up and the hammer back when the feeder went off and boogered them out of the canyon. Small bucks trailing and does with young fawns were the only deer seen. Maybe the Thanksgiving trip will be better.

Mohawk, that’s a good looking Savage. I’ve been wanting one in 300 Savage. Just not ready to spend the coins.

Seeing nothing but dinks and does, here so far. It was hit opening weekend. Ready for the rut to kick off in a few weeks.

Congrats to the boys Hanco. Looks like the bacon haulers are keepin ya busy shooting. Good luck on getting a toad of your own.😎

They weren’t moving at all, saw a few small bucks

It was slow for us also. Late in the morning my son shot a doe with his 257 WBY. It was for My BIL who is the land owner.



I talked to a fellow hunting on the next property. Asked if we had any game cam pics of good bucks. We were a little late putting cameras up this year. I said we had no pics of grown bucks and he said he had none either.

He then told us they shot two 10 pointers last year well I shot a decent 11 also so I thought to myself no wonder there's no good bucks we killed them all.
when we pulled the cards Saturday we finally had a pic of this buck and a decent 8.

Seabreeze bite the bullet and find a 99F in .300 Savage and spend the money. I highly suggest the F model for a hunting rifle and the .300 is an awesome round. I doubt you'll be disappointed. I personally think it is the perfect deer rifle for the type of hunting that I do.
