My Rights As An American

I am always afraid to ask what unit for fear of this kind of response, but I too like to know the unit simply for getting more to the story. I have lots of areas that I hunt, all of them are public anyway, but I do not give them away to anyone not closely related to me because I do not know who they will tell. More times than I care to admit, I have given quite generic and sometimes incorrect information to those same beer holding, road hunting slobs that often never leave the view of their vehicle. However, asking the unit does not mean you are giving away your honey hole by any stretch. It adds to the story. I also like knowing the terrain. The terrain I hunt whitetails the last few years has not been pinon juniper or scrub oaks, but seeing pictures of these beautiful deer that people are shooting enriches the story and gets me the itch to get higher into the hills. Right now I hunt lower elevations, around 2800-3300 feet, but I sure like to see those pictures of 5000-7000 foot elevations with nice deer. Especially for that early hunt in late October when the temps are still pushing 90+ daily. I guess what I am saying is that asking the unit should not be a sin, nor frowned upon. Hunting units are huge, and giving away secret spots is not the same as giving away unit numbers.

Check this one out, for content-apropriateness only. I am not encouraging a debate on one's sexual preferences. I am just shocked at the brazenness of this. Obama and his "leadership" selections leave much to be desired. http://biggovernment.com/2009/12/09/fistga...n-your-partner/

Sent you a PM, hope it helps.

I have always wanted to do a Texas hog hunt, maybe combined with some other species of deer or rams. Does anyone have any leads that they could IM me of some reasonably priced hunts in Texas for this? The best I can find is three days of hogs for $650 (no trophy fees), plus one small Texas dall ram on a low fence hunt, that I am somewhat leery about (license not included). I am trying to convince my wife that we can afford this small trip for me, but it would help if I could find something even less expensive but still offer opportunities. I have to think that this economy has got some people offering deals! I have two other people interested, so at least three hunters would be going. I could do either bow or rifle, but would prefer not to do a high fence or high trophy fee hunt. I just want to shoot some hogs and maybe an "exotic" or whitetail doe or small buck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again!

gaaagaaaagaaaagaaaagaaaaagaaaaa......drool.

Good luck and go get him. But, uh, just in case, why don't you just let me know where he is so that if you miss, I will be there in January to avenge the previous misses. Sound good? You can simply send me the coordinates, it that is easier!

That is actually the kind of buck I need to find, permanently "special" and slow footed due to injury or abnormality, allowing me to get off as much lead as possible in hopes of connecting with something, anything, before he runs over the next hilltop! Yeah, I shoot like Helen Keller at times!

Great job! Nice buck!

Great deer! I really like that buck a lot! Excellent brows, nice spread, pretty and quite symmetrical. My kind of deer!

Another great buck! Go git-r-done!

Mechanical broadheads!

GREAT tips, thanks everyone. I will try it on a deer head I have in the freezer for the last four and half years! Hey, I have been busy!

Great story, great pics. Glad to hear you were seeing deer, but bummed that you did not get a chance to seal the deal. Ah, that is not what the hunt is all about anyway. Your story and pics make the hunt, not the antlers!

Tremendous buck, BTW. I think your request is very reasonable, you have already harvested the animal, you are not e-scouting which seems to be frowned upon.

Awesome buck, awesome score! Very nice!!! Should taste great!

Cool video, I saw that some time ago and thought how much fun the elk was having! I wish we could still play around in the mud, but I have to work right now. Which reminds me, why am I responding to threads instead of working on a Friday?

Great bucks! Congratulations to the hunters!

Nice find! On my hunt this year, I found four coues sheds, none of which were very small! One had a nice cheater point coming off the G3, which was pretty large already. I found three of the four on our last day of hunting, as well as the day my buddy shot his nice coues. I need to get some pictures of the group of sheds (plus the one my friend found). Nice little collection. I think the combined total of the five sheds was scoreable 22 points. Fun times!

How about the new one being used by the liberals for illegal aliens? It is not really Undocumented aliens (UDAs) as much as the new term they are starting to use--Victims of the human smuggling trade! VICTIMS!!!

What a great deer, and it sounds like that the action was continual for your short hunt. Something always happening around you, keeps the hunt much more fun!

What a jaw-dropping amazing deer! Congratulations to the hunter!!!

My mistake, I thought you were talking about the more recent fire. My apologies. Thank you scoutm for correcting me and providing the proper link.

Welcome to the site, look forward to hearing your stories this year. As for the fire, check out this older thread from a few weeks ago. http://forums.coueswhitetail.com/forums/in...showtopic=15760

Thunderhead and Muzzy, 125 grains. I have never had problems with either over the last 20 years. I have stocked up on Thunderheads for the next 15 years already!!!

I agree with many other posters, it is not your spot, it is not their spot, it is no single person's spot. You did your homework and they seem to have also. Get there first and enjoy! They may get there late or not show up until later in the hunt. They may push a monster or a dink right into your shooting lane. It is just as much your spot as anyone else's. If you are there and they show up and cause a problem, head to spot B or C and make as much noise on the way out as possible!
