No..I was due to shoot an axis doe, but blew a knee out and had to go home to the Doc early! Axis is on the docket for this fall though!

Nice work Tom. Congrats and great shooting. Thanks for sharing the pics.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Did the knee blow getting in the golfcart? Kicking the feeder? Climbing the steps to the blind? Getting outta the truck to open a gate? How else could it happen in texas?.......grin

You have the Texas thing all wrong...
Its not a golf cart..its a " Mule" or a " Polaris"...
I can't reach high enough to kick the feeder...
I'm pushing 65 years old, the steps up to the blind really are getting to be a chore...
Being the client, I don't have to open gates!

Nice hogs by the way. There's more of those downstairs.

You have to be one of the only guys from Montana who vacations in Texas. You're supposed to live in Texas and vacation in Montana!
Nice animals and good shooting!
