Great reminder of the gratitude we all ought to possess; great post. GRF & Micro - Really appreciate your kind words... EFW - Have to agree on all counts - but I'm biased! DJ

DJ,
Your posts are always something to look forward to. Have missed you on the Fire and don't be a stranger. Still wondering how you've done with the 7-08 Montana, 120 TTSX and Big Game load! More pics! Good to catch up, Marty! Thanks for your kind words. Sam's right - that 7-08 Montana is death with the 120's - either factory Vortex or my Big Game load. I like my handloads better, but the Vortex shoots silly good if it is a little less on velocity...Have a few pics of what she's done the last couple of years that I'll try to get to if I can catch y'all up on the kids' exploits a bit! Here's a little preview of one from last year... ![[Linked Image]](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c150/djtex/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps5bf7b9b5.jpg) I know, the kid's pics are a lot more interesting...grin.

DJTex; Thanks for sharing your daughter's hunt with us - it's good to see you posting again too. Please send along congratulations to your daughter on that very fine buck.  You of course get my customary tip of the hat for ensuring this hunt, like so many others in the past, actually took place. Thanks again I do miss your posts and it's good to read them again. All the best to you and your fine family this Thanksgiving. Dwayne Dwayne, Thanks so much! I've enjoyed watching your family grow and seeing y'all's hunts as you've shared them the last little while. I always appreciate your posts and the gracious and mannerly tone you always bring to any post in which you participate. I hope you are enjoying a great season with them! DJ

Marty, I think another Texas buck might have fallen to that combo... Great post DJ. Thanks, Sam. Haven't posted a pic of the one I killed the other day, but I'll get to it...grin. How about you find a big one first? Hope y'all are well. DJ

Pointer,
Thank you for the kind words. I really enjoy writing about theses hunts - reliving them, the enjoyment others get, and getting the pictures saved and stories in writing to be enjoyed for years to come. Glad you enjoyed it.
'Loader,
Thank you, sir! Hope to chase something like the one in your avatar some day!
'Gravy,
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed the pictures & story! Will pass congrats along.
DJ
