Hit a nice buck with the F250 this morning. Was a monster right behind it.
Lucky bastard took it on the ham and avoided going under. He bounced up and made off. Looked like he had a pretty good hitch in his giddyup. Hope he heals up.
That was the extent of deer action for me this season.

When did Texas early-up the gun opener? I thought it was always the 2nd Sat. in November.

Hearing lots of shots around this morning. Opening day of rifle season.. More shots than usual so far. Not hunting, myself. I may do so later in the middle of the week when things calm down a bit. What's your opener like? Post pics if you have 'em!  " I may do so later in the middle of the week when things calm down a bit." SMART!!

When did Texas early-up the gun opener? I thought it was always the 2nd Sat. in November. They used to open the North season the first weekend of Nov. And the South seasons were later. But I think they opened it all, (North and South) from Nov. 2nd thru Jan. 5th this year. Then There's some late seasons that follow in some areas for does and spikes and such.

What's your opener like? Post pics if you have 'em! Had that happen one year in Southeastern SD. Sounded like a war, couldn't figure it out. During the lunch break we saw it was a bunch of non-hunters trying to impress each other at the rifle range. Had us really going WTF? as we weren't seeing deer even in the usual hot spots.

Nah. You prolly wouldn't have shot one today anyway...  I see even the deep S. Texas counties open today. But they go through Jan. 19th. Lotsa hunting days there. Lotsa $$$ per day...

We're hunting the Northwestern Zone in NC. Alleghany county on the Ashe County line. Muzzle loader season opens 11/9. Son will be in a tri-pod overlooking some outstanding browse/bedding ground and I'll be sitting with my wife in a double ladder watching a hot scrape line in a Y-hollow timbered drainage in a fallow Christmas tree farm. Hot scrapes abound. Shots will be heard.

Our deer season is over - another casualty of NMDGF cutting numbers, and days. They REALLY screwed us this time!

Opening day here will be next Saturday, and I'm sure the local Mennonites will burn plenty of powder. I used to have some nosey neighbors, and if they heard me shoot, they'd worry themselves crazy trying to figure out what I was shooting at. I used to carry some extra shells, that I'd call my "Combs" shells, as that was their last name. When things were slow, I'd fire off a round, knowing that they would start wondering what I was shooting at.

Usually not a whole lot of gun shots heard around my immediate area on opening weekend. Occasionally I may hear spurts of two or three shots close together but more often just a single.
The year I heard the most shots was back when SKS rifles were selling dirt cheap. I swear, that year it seemed almost like trying to emptying the clip was the goal. Someone hunting real close to where I was must've burned through a whole box or two of ammo on opening weekend.
Whoever it was had to have been one heck of a poor shot, taking wild ridiculously chancy shots, or if hitting any only wounding because if they did hit any deer I never once saw or heard them even attempt to find any they might've hit.
