    Texas monthly top 50

    I don't know if anyone else follows this but Texas monthly puts out The top 50 BBQ in Texas every 4 years. Today they released the new list for the next 4 years. 1. Burnt Bean Co., Seguin 2. LeRoy and Lewis Barbecue, Austin 3. Goldee’s Barbecue, Fort Worth 4. Redbird BBQ, Port Neches 5. GW’s BBQ, San Juan 6. InterStellar BBQ, Austin 7. Dayne’s Craft Barbecue, Aledo 8. La Vaca BBQ, Port Lavaca 9. Truth Barbeque, Houston 10. Evie Mae’s Pit Barbeque, Wolforth I was excited to see my favorite BBQ restaurant Burnt Bean Co receive the top spot. I have been here several times the past few years and it is my family and friends favorite BBQ restaurant we have ever been to. We have been to several others on the list including the previous number one Goldee's but the burnt bean was always everyone's favorite. If you are ever in the San Antonio area do your self a favor and take a trip out to Seguin. The BBQ is amazing and so is the Sunday brunch. I can't wait to get back.

    GOULDS

    Private property and lions, must have been hunting in unit 32. I always wanted to hunt goulds there. Originally they transplanted turkey into the middle of the unit at powers garden using a helicopter and volunteers on the ground. I always wanted to hike in camp and hunt there. I put in there for years but with so few tags offered there is no bonus pass tags offered. Once I had enough points to draw a pass tag in another unit I quit applying there. Congratulations to your son on a nice Tom.

    Real ID

    I called one of the 3rd party DMV's and they wanted $80. If you go to the state DMV its $25.
  4. 8 months is crazy. I sent mine to browning last year and it only took 3 weeks to get it back refinished. Looking good. Are you going to leave it black or have it camo dipped?

    Merrimans down

    1/2" spurs 10.5" beard, I would think its a 3 year old. Either way there is nothing wrong with a 2 year old. I love 2 year old birds, easy to call in easy to kill. Only a pound or two lighter than older birds. I love it when I see lots of Jake's in one area because I know it will be a hot spot for two year olds the next year.

    2025 Opening Day Turkey

    ln looking at the map it looks like I was about 4 miles from the nearest lake. He must have been up high in the sky watching the flock of Turkey waiting for the right opportunity.

    Anyone see this? Az elk calf escapes wolves

    While fishing the west fork of the black river with a good friend and his dad a few years back we came around this bend in the river and there was a spike elk standing on this rock ledge just above the river. He was acting and looked strange, his tongue was hanging out and he didn't run away. As we got closer this collared wolf came running out from just under the rocks and ran up the hill stopping once or twice to see what we were before leaving. He had chased and cornered this elk. Glad to have come to the rescue for the elk that day.

    2025 Opening Day Turkey

    My son has had it great. Every year he's had turkeys called in with lots of gobbling and the ideal turkey hunting experience every year. When I was his age there was no over the counter youth hunt. My dad and I had no clue what we were doing when we first started turkey hunting. We attended many classes and seminars on how to hunt. We still failed most years but we kept at it and all the experiences and time made me the turkey hunter I am today. Do I wish my dad would have been a better turkey hunter and spoiled me, sure but I grew a lot closer to my dad through learning together. I am really grateful to him because he was the one who originally wanted to start turkey hunting. For me it was just a way to bridge the gap between the fall big game hunts. Now it's become my favorite hunt of the year. So keep at it your son is lucky to have a dad like you who takes him out each year.

    2025 Opening Day Turkey

    I was able to get my turkey on opening morning. Something different happened on this hunt that I have never seen or heard of before. After I shot my turkey he is flopping around on the ground when out of nowhere a bald eagle comes dive bombing out of the sky through the trees and lands on top of my dead turkey and starts attacking him with his talons and beak. I guess he wasn't bothered by the gunshot I had just used on the Tom. Anyways I had to run quickly to scare him off before my dead turkey flew away.

    2025 youth turkey hunt

    That is my newest call that I developed last year. Three and a half reeds of latex. Three different thickness of latex. The cut out shape is called a ghost cut. I like to name my calls after Arizona places so being a ghost cut I named it after the logging camp ghost town of "Maverick" in the white mountains.

    Turkey activity 2025

    With no snow accumulation at all this winter expect the birds to be spread out in small flocks in more locations. In the areas I normally see large winter flocks had none this winter. They didn't have to migrate and congregate because of no snow pack.

    Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander would be my picks if you were trying to avoid the minivan.
