Yep, deer was dang near broadside at 70 yards. I clipped the scapula going in and took out a rib on the exit. The sound of the SLAP was impressive. He ran about 20 yards, everything inside was liquid.
The same bullet unzipped the fox and jackrabbits.

Hey punkin'!! I so love Nashville.
Picking up Pat in a couple of hours. You available for a call during ride to camp? I don't have time to read the thread yet to find out about your trip.
You and Bart are signed up for Betty Ford first thing Monday!!

Still have a few pelts. Glad you guys were able to find a hunt out in that country. Hunted much next to the Pecos many times in the past on leases. Great pics.

So a few BIG ones just outside of Fort Stockton on I-10 Well tie it in with the deer/mulie season. They stink, smell just like a skunk, smell goes away with hanging on the wall of a shed after a year or so. Beautiful country to hunt. Best time to be in the country is Nov thru March or so. Hot other wise. Wish I still had a lease down there, I would make sure you got the chance, along with Bart. The drive from Louisiana, how far to Alpine? 500?

Tagging Deer or Turkey Filling Out the Tag for Attaching to Deer or Turkey If required, the tag from the hunting license of the person who killed the deer or turkey must be correctly and legibly completed (including name of property and county) and must:
be used on a specific type of deer or turkey (for example, buck tags must be used only on buck deer, antlerless tags on antlerless deer, etc.). have the month and date of kill CUT OUT. be attached immediately to the deer or turkey carcass until it reaches its final destination and is finally processed (see Definitions). It is against the law to use:
a tag taken from the license of another person or allow your tag to be used by another person. a tag more than one time (or on more than one deer or turkey). an incorrect tag on a deer or turkey (example: mule deer tag used on a white-tailed deer, etc.). Where to Attach Tag to Deer or Turkey The hunting license tag may be attached anywhere on a deer or turkey so that it is not damaged, defaced, or lost in transporting or handling. For deer, the appropriate tag or applicable permit must remain attached to the deer until the deer reaches its final destination and is quartered. If the animal is a deer and the head is severed from the carcass (body), then the appropriate tag and any applicable permits must remain attached to the carcass. See proof of sex in the section Processing Carcass in Camp. If the head does not accompany the carcass, then the head must be accompanied by a Wildlife Resource Document (WRD).
Tip: Remember that if the head and the carcass are separated, the tag goes with the carcass and the head must be accompanied by a WRD.
Except for deer killed by MLD permit, LAMPS permit, department special permit, U.S. Forest Service antlerless permit, or Big Time Texas Hunt, all deer must be tagged IMMEDIATELY upon kill (see Tagging Deer or Turkey), in a secure manner anywhere on the deer, with an appropriate license tag with the month and date CUT OUT

I believe that tag was attached to the broken rib inside the cavity...now [bleep] off
