Feeder wild... wink

No feeders and they wouldn't come to them if there were. If there were, and they did, I shoot 'em there though. No flower beds to shoot 'em out of either.

Good luck! We gotta make better plans this year.

You're right Pat, this was a Short notice business trip.

But I have an air travel bow case! So I fly with it a lot.
Posted By: gitem_12 Re: Got Lucky - 12/18/14
Nice Bucks Pat. That first one has character
Posted By: ltppowell Re: Got Lucky - 12/18/14
He was old. Probably 7+. Didn't really look it, but the teeth said otherwise.
Posted By: dvdegeorge Re: Got Lucky - 12/18/14
Great job Pat, very nice bucks!
Posted By: rost495 Re: Got Lucky - 12/18/14
antlers look gnarly enough to show signs of age. NOt that its a solid indicator but sometimes its true. I rarely see base character on a deer less than 5plus
Posted By: kendibs Re: Got Lucky - 12/18/14

Two very respectable animals. Congrats Pat.

Posted By: ltppowell Re: Got Lucky - 12/18/14
Thanks, as stated...I got lucky. Being good means nothing at all without some degree of luck, and killing them is a nice respite from not getting a deer, at all, last year.
Posted By: rainierrifleco Re: Got Lucky - 12/18/14
Those are big deer for Texas....good job...
Posted By: USMC2602 Re: Got Lucky - 12/19/14
Nice bucks, congrats!

Good, Pat. Lucky twice, huh?
Posted By: eyeball Re: Got Lucky - 12/25/14
Ok, lucky twice means good.
Posted By: ltppowell Re: Got Lucky - 12/25/14
If I've learned nothing else about mature whitetails..."good" ain't enough. laugh
Posted By: eyeball Re: Got Lucky - 12/29/14
True, but there are no real buckmasters.
Posted By: ltppowell Re: Got Lucky - 12/29/14
Thank you for the kind words. I try hard.
Posted By: MontanaCreekHunter Re: Got Lucky - 12/29/14
Two very nice deer congrats.
