Re: Team 18

I just finished fishing my last bass tournament of the season, so now I'm ready to hunt! Heading out to West Texas next weekend for a go 'round. Looks like cooler temps, so I'm hoping the deer will be moving. Good luck to everyone!

BTW - I pm'd our missing person a while back. Haven't heard anything from him yet. Still hoping nothing bad has happened to him. Maybe he'll show up if he gets something.

Re: Team 18

Saturday was a bust waaayyyyy too hot and crunchy. Havent had rain since June. Deer weren't moving at all. Saturday we saw about 3 does (normally we see 30+). Plus two trucks drove in and screwed it up. The landowner caught them and revoked there permission cards and kicked them out. Jerks screw it up for everybody. Sun. was really wet and rainy which we really needed. Jumped two bucks one real nice one and couldn't get a shot. Passed on a HUGE mulie doe I'll wait until later in the season as I can only get one deer. I like to go for a decent buck earlier as I can always get a doe later. I'm going up into the Okanogan country this weekend to look for a big mulie then it'll doe hunting if I strike out up there.

Re: Team 18

I'll be leaving this afternoon for the weekend to see if I can't tag out on a mulie. It'll be a 4X4 or better as I want a decent deer from this area. Those sage brush eating buggers taste like shite so I want it to be a nice one if I do tag out. Hopefully I don't break down and shoot a small one. It's been known to happen. Good luck to you all. I'll see you in a few days.
