Nice TX Opeing Weekend

To say this past weekend was great would be an understatement. I shot two nice TX Hill Country bucks when the deer weren't moving (full moon/acorns). I saw 15 deer (which is very low) but 12 of those deer were bucks!!! The first deer I shot was at 120 yds. He came in very nervous and started walking away. When I shot I thought I had missed him as I saw a deer run away. I was bummed and my buddies were texting me and giving me a hard time. After an hour I got up to check to make sure I didn't hit him and as I approached the spot I saw a white belly - I hit him!!!! The second deer came the next day. I was in the same stand and saw a doe early in the morning behind me. She was real jittery and acting like a doe in heat. She left and came back in a hurry and ran accross my path. I knew if there were any bucks in the area they would follow. About 45 minutes later I thought an elephant was coming through the forrest. This buck burst out looking for his lady friend. I quickly repositioned myself and as he stopped at 80 yds I was able to put a good shot on him. He ran about 60 yds and piled up. It has been a great season for me so far. 3 nice bucks (2 TX/1 OK)! :)
